Solve file association and opening methods in Windows 7

  
Because the work needs to analyze the source of a message, etc., because I am used to using Office Outook to view the mail attribute information, and the current system default mail program is Windows Live Mail, so use the "open method" specified by Office Outlook opens the message, but when the open mode is specified, it is inadvertent, and the result of the check is not removed. "Always use the selected program to open this file".
































In the folder option, you can set the file key and open mode, but under Windows 7 gOxiA is confused! I haven't found it for a long time, because it is the reason of RC version, it is difficult to search related in the help system. Information, at least through several keywords can not be searched for related help. But I can be sure that the system will have a place to set up. This reminds me of the control panel —— system configuration center, after trying hard to find the location.
Open the control panel. By default, the control panel is arranged in categories, so as shown in the figure below, we need to click on “Program” to find the default program settings. Here we can change the specified type file. The way to open and the default program settings.




Of course, under the category list arrangement, we may not be able to intuitively let us know the specific information of each setting function. I personally recommend switching the viewing mode to “large icon”, This way I can clearly understand the name of each setting function.




Click Set default program”, we can see the default program currently registered in the system in the program list box on the left side of the figure below, select Windows Live Mail, and click on the right & nbsp; Select the default value of this program & rdquo;, then in the "Setup Program Association" check the extension of the type of ".eml", click OK to complete the settings.

Of course, we can also click on the file type or protocol to associate with the program in the default program settings panel to specify the opening method for a specific file type.
