File Assocations

Post by bobsofpa »

I have the latest PWPro 64 7.0.12 (downloaded today).

The "Associations" tab is missing from the File Menu. As per the manual it should be just below "Preferences". How do I change the file associations?

In previous versions, Picture window had a dialog for setting associations. The dialog has been removed because Microsoft no longer supports the programming functions the dialog relied on.

You can change associations using Windows commands. One way is from the Windows file manager. Right click on the file type whose association you want to set and choose Open With / Choose Default Program. The resulting dialog allows you to choose a program for that file and set the 'always use this application' check box to make it permanent.

Will do that but it looks like the manual should be revised.
