[pchelpers] Re: Change Open With in Vista

You should have a check-box at the bottom to make it the default.  Have you 
tried this, and if so, is it not working?

Subject: [pchelpers] Change Open With in Vista



In Vista I have had no success in getting it to accept editpad.exe as
the default program to open .txt files.
I use Open With to browse to the file and select editpad.exe it but
Vista refuses to accept that as the  program to use.

Has anyone been able to make it work?

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
