You can repeat this process for various file types (e.g. → Select "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file", and press OK. You should be able to find it, but if you can't you can press 'Browse' and search for the program's main executable file. → From the dialog box that pops up select the program you want to make the default application (if it was a doc file then select swriter if you want OpenOffice to handle these files or Microsoft Word if you prefer that). Select 'Open With.', then 'Choose Program.'. The easiest method is to simply right click on a file that you want to open.Now find OpenOffice or Microsoft Office in the list and after selecting the appropriate one you can either choose 'Set this program as default' to make it the default application for all file types it can handle in one fell swoop, or 'Choose defaults for this program' to quickly pick the file types you would like this program to handle. Start button->Control Panel->Programs->Default Programs->Set your default programs It's not often I have good things to say about Vista, but I am pleased to announce that this is definitely one occasion where it can make life easier.
See this post below: Setting the default program under Mac OSįor Vista, in addition to the XP methods, there is also another way. See this post below: Setting the default program (Windows 7 and following). If you have any comments, please post in: Comments on Setting the default program.
I’m an avid bird photographer and traveler-I’ve been to 40 countries, many with great birds! Because I’m also a classical fan and former performer, I’ve reviewed streaming services that emphasize classical music.Here are the instructions to set the application to be used to open your files.
I’ve attended trade shows of Microsoft, Google, and Apple and written about all of them and their products. Prior to my current role, I covered software and apps for ExtremeTech, and before that I headed up PCMag’s enterprise software team, but I’m happy to be back in the more accessible realm of consumer software. I was privileged to byline the cover story of the last print issue of PC Magazine, the Windows 7 review, and I’ve witnessed every Microsoft win and misstep up to the latest Windows 11. I’ve been reviewing software for PCMag since 2008, and I still get a kick of seeing what's new in video and photo editing software, and how operating systems change over time. PC hardware is nice, but it’s not much use without innovative software.
