I am trying to filter files in a file filter by setting fileChooser.setAcceptAllFileFilterUsed(false);. The "all files" option disappears from the FileChooser but all files remain visible unless you select an option from PDF documents,ms Office or images. I want to have only my 3 custom filters upon opening the file chooser.

For example, if you want to filter your JFileChooser to strictly display most commonly found image files, you would use something like this:
FileNameExtensionFilter filter = new FileNameExtensionFilter("Image Files", "jpg", "png", "gif", "jpeg");
JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser();
fileChooser.setFileFilter(filter);
The first argument is the description (what gets displayed upon selection at the bottom) and the second argument are the informal file extensions.
