I cannot replicate this.

My default image viewer is FastStone viewer and that's what opens when I
click on a hyperlink to a *.jpg

I re-associated *.jpgs with three different applications and they all did
their thing from a hyperlink in Excel.

Have you tried......in Explorer.......to right-click on a *.jpg and "Open
With" and point to Windows Fax and Picture Editor.

Set to "always open with".
