First check your registry for hidden errors.

Notes about the TIFF file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The TIFF file type is primarily associated with 'Tagged Image Format File'. Also most fax files. Often you can view these files in the Windows Picture and fax viewer in Windows XP. You can also import the file into Word or other files as an image and view it there. If you cannot delete TIF files in Windows XP, even if not in use, you may have a defective version of the Microsoft RAW viewer. Modify the viewer options or uninstall it per the Microsoft page instructions.
