What Is File Viewer Protection
A File Viewer is the program you have set in Windows to open/play/view a file type. For example an MP3 file would be played by one of many different sound programs. There are often many programs that could play a file. For example, there are dozens if not hundreds of different MP3 playing programs. But usually you have your favorite and always want your MP3 files to play in the same program--WinAmp, RealPlayer, iTunes, Windows Media Player, etc. Often when a competing program installs, it will set itself to be the viewer for a file type.
