File extension association

Hi,

I want to change a custon association I did for a specific file extension
but if I go under "Folder Options" I cannot find any more the File Type tab.

Where are now stored those infos ? How can I change them ?

Have a nice day.

Re: File extension association

ss,

I also want to specify a parameter to the "open" command line as I was able
to do with XP.
Any idea on how to perform this task ?

I am actually trying to find this out myself. Check out the thread called
"How to Access Advanced File Types ??" in
