Can someone help please? I have recently changed something in my documents
folder which means everything I try to open (i.e.) photos try to open in a
word document! Many thanks.

It looks like it is a file association problem and if so you will need to
re-associate the original program with the relevant file. The link provided
by John Inzer MVP should help you sort the problem out. Alternatively you
could just right click on the relevant file, select 'open with' from the
drop down menu and see if the original program is listed for that file. If
it is you can select it so that the file opens with that application. If it
isn't visible try browsing for the relevant program.
