alice-teacher Problem running Alice 2.x

[Mark Ho]

You can also change the file type to Alice, this way, you can double click
on your project and it will open with Alice. Please following the
instructions below:

1. Right click on any project file

5. click on the "Open" button
6. click on the "OK" button, and "OK" button again.

You should see that all of your Alice projects should have a thumb nail
image of Alice.

hope this helps.

Mark Ho
