File Extensions.

New to Vista (have Vista Ultimate). Where do you find find the list of file
extensions plus the default program which handles that extension? In
XP, I once had a program which managed extensions. It would block any
attempt to change an association UNLESS an administrator concurred. Know of
anything which might do the same for Vista.

Hi Gene,

You can see a list in "Default Programs" in the Control Panel. You can see details with screenshots here in the "Second Method" section.
