| | Filetype Properties (icon, application, context menu) Hi NG, How can I change the filetype properties like icon, which application should open the filetype (and with what parameters) and what actions should the context menu show if I right click a file. In XP I can change this settings in the explorer with Tools -> Options -> File Types But there is no File Types tab in Vista RC1 Stefan |
