PSP Files sent to me open as MS Pushpins??

[kat57]

Some files that I have that have been sent to me as .psp are trying to open as "microsoft pocket streets pushpins" files. I can save them as .psp, but they always try to open as mpsp files. I have PSP XI, by the way.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!!!

Right click on one of the PSP files and select Open With - this should bring up a list of programs and the option to browse to find the correct one - you can aslo set the default program here.

Would you believe when I right click, I don't have the "open with" option, just open.

I have never had this happen before!

Yikes!

UPDATE: PSP Files sent to me open as MS Pushpins??

I finally got the "Open with" choice, and when I choose PSP, it tries to open, then tells me it is not compatible with my PSP version.

It's so strange, since it shows up as a PSP file on my computer. I have several from different sources that do this. I have PSP XI, does it not read back to the earlier versions?

Thanks for all your help!!

Hold the shift key at the same time.
