Sammy20 Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Picasa 3 is simply incredible. So good, that it's replacing XnView as my default image viewer.Does anyone know silent install instructions to get file types registered as well? Where are all the settings stored for the program?

ajua Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 In order to use most of application settings, you will need to install it and configure it the way you want. Then you search for the place where the settings are stored (the registry in many cases).So, install it, configure it and then look at those registry entries to see what you want to export.

ajua Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 You import .REG registry files using this inside a CMD file:REGEDIT /S PATH\REGFILE.REGREGEDIT /S C:\registry.reg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
