I recently wanted to get rid of paint shop and I did because I did not use it.

Now when I go to look at previous attached pictures and messages I am
transferred to notebook. Why did this happen? What to do

Decide what program you want to use to open jpg or other picture files. Find
a sample of a JPG file and right click on it ;go down to Open With , then go
down to Choose program. Choose your favourite graphics prog and click on it.
Then tick the box that says, Always use the selected program to, open this
kind of file.
After that you should be OK

Well, at least XP is trying to use something. As for why it happened, the
uninstall process did not change the file associations from paint shop to
another image editor. There are at least four ways to fix you problem, and
another poster has suggested the easiest way. Help & Support discusses
three of the ways at length. The remaining way involves a change in the
registry.
