windows 8 - How to set the default program or application for handling a given file type or url protocol?


How can I change or set the default application for handling a given file type? What about for some specified actions, like "open web browser" and "preview image"?



Answer



Press the Win+R and type control and hit Enter now select the option Default Programs. Now you can select the option between Set your default programs or Associate a file type or protocol with a program. The first one will let you set the program default for the application which it can handle. And the second option will let you change the per file program.
