I get a message that helper application does not exist when I try to open a jpg or excel files as attachments. I have associated use windows live photo gallery
I have gone to Tools, Options, Attachments and there are programs associated that should be able to open the files - Windows Live Photo gallery for JPG files and Microsoft Excel for excel files. I have to actually download and save the files and then open them. Is there a fix for this?

Go back and delete those associations and start again by opening one of those files. Thunderbird will recreate the entries based on your choices and they will then probably work.

Thanks, Matt, I did as you suggested and now it works!
