Hey Guys! Have you ever imagined that for some reason your default program for accessing any file type is different then the program you want to use. In such scenario what could be done? Suppose i have windows media player installed by default on my computer which has Windows XP Pro. I installed WinAmp for some reason, and now my multimedia files [audio/video] opens in WinAmp. Now for some reason i want to play my multimedia files in Windows Media Player again. What do i do? Keep on right-clicking on every multimedia fils then going to properties then clicking change then select the default program and then click ok then again click apply and finally again click ok. huff!! This procedure is for single file type. there are a number of file types which fall in the multimedia section, example : mp3, avi, mpg, vob etc.
For this problem Windows provides a simple tool to select "Default Programs to access a group of files." You can select your different Default Access Program for Different Files from the following location :
Go to Control Panel
Run "Add or Remove Programs"
Now click on "Set Program Access and Defaults"
Now there are three options.
Click on "Microsoft Windows" if you want to select the programs which are inbuilt in windows.
Click on "Non-Microsoft" if you want to select the programs which are not inbuilt in windows.
Click on "custom" if you want to select the default programs manually.
Easy and simple huh??
All the best Enjoy...! TA Rockz!
