Oh, that's too easy. I want things to be complicated. But of course you're right.

Who knows? maybe that will work, or maybe it will totally bollix things.

There is only one option for Sibelius, and even if you browse to Sibelius 5 Windows will still use Sibelius 6. I'm not sure, but I think the file associations feature is based on the executable name, which is always Sibelius.exe, regardless of the version number.
