• Cannot change the default program to open certain types of files more

  I opened the month .package file type by using a specific .exe designed to cope.  I got this morning and by clicking on a .package file brought to the top of the screen "choose default program".  I chose the appropriate program, but it does not appear in the screen of the recommended program, and I can't find any way to make it use the default .exe.   I tried to change it in the area of selection of the programs in the the control panel by default and hot at the same result.  I can still open the files by starting the program manually and choosing the option 'Open', but it is a tedious and repetitive task!  This program is used to group graphic files in a specific format, and it is not uncommon to open and close files .package 5 6 times in a period of 10 minutes.  I really need to fix this ASAP.  My productivity has come to a near standstill.

  I'm on Win7 64-bit, the program in question is a stand-alone that has always been in its own folder in the downloads library.  I tried to move to the folder program files (x 86), but that did not help.  Windows recognizes the program when I make the request to select the default program.  When I try to use it however, it is not an option.

  I was going to link to the Microsoft Developer Network instructions, but it's a pretty large amount of information for it, so, let me suggest a small program that should be able to do it for you.

• In "set your default programs" under Win7, file associations of Firefox are altered.

  "Set your default programs" in the control panel of Windows 7, Firefox appears in the list of "Programs" on the left. But its icon is that of Windows Media Player.

  After I click on the name of the program (Firefox) to see the details on the right, I noticed that Firefox icon becomes that of Windows Media Player, also. And "Mozilla Corporation" becomes "Microsoft Corporation".

  If I click on "Set this program as default", files of these types are opened by Windows Media Player, no Firefox:
  htm, html, shtml, xht, xhtml.

  So I must manually associate these file types Firefox to "associate a type of file or Protocol with a specific program.

  To resolve this problem, should what registry entries I change?

  You can try to uninstall and reinstall Firefox, perhaps as an administrator.

  Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

  Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

  • Firefox 24: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

  Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

  • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

  Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.
  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox

  Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  Hello world.

  Simplest of them would follow these steps:
  1. Click Start > default programs
  2. Click "Set your default programs"
  3. list programs, click on 'Windows Media Player '.
  4. Click set this program as default

  This should prevent itunes from launching automatically when you open the zip file. However, I use itunes to version 8.1 of one year, but again, I don't have this problem. I suggest that you need to update your itunes.

  If the problem persists, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start > default of programs
  2. Click "associate any type of file or Protocol with a program.
  3. Scroll to the bottom for. Zip
  4. click it and then click on "Program Change"
  5. In the list that appears, select WinZip or WinRAR. If they are not displayed, then click on the drop down arrow besides "other programs." If it still does not her you must install winRAR or WinZIP.
  6. If WinZIP or WinRAR appeared, then click Ok and click Ok.
  7. If it is not then go to google, search for WinZIP or WinRAR and download the latest version.

  What should probably solve all your queries.

• create a default value for the file types

  I created a new site and is a kind of ColdFusion document.

  Dreamweaver creates ever new htm file when I right click on the folder of the site to create a new file for the site.

  I wonder what's possible to leave Dreamweaver to set the default file type.

  For example, Dreamweaver can create cfm for ColdFusion site files and php for PHP site.

  Your information and help is much appreciated,

  Kind regards

  Iccsi,

  I don't know what version of DW, you have, but in CS6 preferences panel allows you to specify the default document type and file extension for all new files that you create in DW.   This does not affect your existing website files.  Only for new.

  To edit existing documents, go to modify > Page Properties > title/encoding.

  Now, if you are working on several sites with the requirements of the other script, you can specify the type of page to create by clicking file > New > blank page > choose a page type.

  This help you?
