I have upgraded to windows 10 and skype started asking which image viewing program to use when you click on the image someone sent to you. The problem is that I cannot figure how to "remember" this choice, it asks each time.
Usually there is a checkbox to remember the choice, but not in this case.

I solved this issue by setting the default viewer as Windows Photo Viewer in PC Settings / System / Default apps instead of "Photos" of W10.

Try setting the default image viewer via PC Settings / System / Default apps.

It is set by default already... And you can see from screenshot it shows this default app on top in a special manner – Ilya Chernomordik – 2015-10-12T08:51:49.467
same with me, if i double click on a file from windows explorer the same type it opens up properly – draeron – 2015-12-29T04:25:09.957
i have multiple applications that does that, mp3tag and utorrent for exemple. Win10 seems to have changed the behavior when an app wants to open a file externally. – draeron – 2015-08-08T17:48:39.890
Have you tried right-clicking on that file (.jpeg, for example) and selected Properties -> Opens with -> Select your preferred application? Does Skype still prompt you, even after that? – TookTheRook – 2015-10-09T18:51:36.280
