On my system, shdocvw32 is already associated with EMF files.  If that's
true for you, then it's easy.  From a command shell:

    C:\Etc>assoc .emf
    .emf=emffile

    C:\Etc>ftype emffile
    emffile=rundll32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1

If yours looks like that, then you can just type this:

    assoc .tif=emffile
    assoc .tiff=emffile
