But I cannot see how to reassign .jpg extention
Seems that changing the value of HKCR\.jpg\(default) seems to cause it to loose it association with a program, but changing it to pimg or ping.exe has not resulted in opening in Pictures & Videos

If someone that has the default file association can post the value of this key it might help you out
You nailed it there. My jpgs and html files just lost association with anything, so I went to HKCR\.jpg, HKCR\.jpeg, and HKCR\.html and gave it a default value of 'jpegimage' and 'htmlfile' and now everything works perfectly. Thanks!
