If you are talking about on the screen when the shopper initially registers and are given the option of choosing Html or text email receipts, there isn't a setting to default that selection to html. The shopper would have to choose html if that is the format that they want.
If you only want email receipts to be sent in html and do not want the shopper to have a choice when they register then you can remove the tag [-- CR_email_type --] from the template configured for Customer Registration. If the field is not in the form then the setting configured in the backoffice for email receipt format will be used. That will cause all email receipts to go out as html or text depending on the setting and the shopper won't have a choice of which they receive. I believe most users can read html emails now but at one time there were a lot that couldn't. However, with more and more people using mobile devices it may pay to limit what you send in emails.
