When
I connect my digital camera to my computer I like the program that will
extract the photos to automatically open . If this does not happen you can
change your settings in Windows Vista. Here's how to choose a program to
start when your digital camera is connected to your computer.
-
Connect your digital camera to your computer and turn
it on.
-
Go
to the Start menu, choose control panel.
-
Double click on the Default Programs icon.
-
Click on Change Auto play settings.

-
Scroll down to find your digital camera.
-
From the drop down menu you can choose what program you want to start when
you plug in your digital camera.

Notes:
-
If you do not have any photo extracting
programs on your computer, only the built in Windows Vista program will be
an option.
-
If you choose Open Device to view files
using Windows Explorer a dialog box will appear showing you the
contents of your camera.
-
You can also choose to take no action,
however most people like to have their photos taken from their digital
cameras automatically.
