On a Vista machine Is there a way to reset the action of double-clicking on
a .jpg to mimic the behavior of right-clicking the file and selecting
preview?

Check the value of the 'default' key at
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile\shell
It should show '(value not set)'., in the right pane. If not then modify the
default key in the right pane to remove whatever's there.
If that sounds a bit too tricky then post back and I'll attach a .reg file
that does the same.

command to open was pointing to the WPG in \program files\ that doesn't work
very well instead of the WGP in \program files (x86)\ that does so I made
that tweak.
Now photos on C:\* open lightning-fast but photos on a network share are
still slower than molasses to open.
