.tga files error

[MARCUS]

i have downloaded bfbuilder and installed it completely the way it should be installed but there are some errors, the first is i cant open .tga files. This is extremely weird since i COULD open them 2 years ago.. I still use the same pc.. But i decided to see if i couldnt fix it myself and it turns out the .tga protocol is not being recognised by my computer. When i try to open a .tga file, it says that there is no program connected to this file and that i should fix this by bringing a link between gimp and the .tga file. but when i try to do this, the .tga file doesnt show up in the list of all the .txt and such. this is extremely weird and i would like to get this fixed, otherwise i wont be able to skin things ..

edit: nevermind found a solution, this can be closed..
