Hello,
I cannot get Fiji to be used correctly as the default program to open images. When it does get set to the default, it will open a new instance of Fiji with every file opened. ImageJ is able to open all the images within the same instance. I spent a while trying to get this to work on my own but with no luck. 

Thanks!
Jon

In recent ImageJ versions, the default behavior changed: every call to Fiji will open a different instance.  You might need to update to the newest ij.jar (with Help>Update Fiji) and enable "Run Socket Listener" in Edit>Options>Misc.

I hate to close bugs without confirmation from users, but I guess the reporter is jon with the wind.
