Have a question or suggestion? Let us know in the comments below.Movies & TV brings you the latest entertainment in one simple, fast, and elegant app on Windows. You can try to double-click a file to open it with the default program. The specific file type should now associate with the application. Find and choose the Program (.exe) file inside the folder and in its subfolders, for the application you want to make as the default. In the “Open with…” dialog, paste the copied path to the field “ File name:” and hit Enter. Scroll down and click on Look for another app on this PC. In File Explorer, right-click on a file whose default program you want to change. Use the “Open With” command to change the default program for the specific file type Double-click the name of the subkey PackageRootFolder, and copy the value data to the clipboard.Open the app key you found, there should be a subkey called PackageID and another called PackageRootFolder, shown as the example below. Look for the key with the app name, or press Ctrl + F to use the “Find” dialog for a quick search under the registry tree. Navigate to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppModel\Repository\Packages. Press Start, search for regedit.exe and then open it. You can find them by following this procedure: The Windows Registry contains the keys and values for all store apps, including their installed locations. A better way is to look for the installation path from the Windows Registry. However, it can turn your system at risk. To browser the folder, you might change the owner and the permission under its Advanced Security Settings. You can find the folder by enabling the display of hidden files in File Explorer, but Windows will alert that you do not have permission to access the folder. Windows typically installs conventional programs to C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86), while it stores the store apps in a different folder called WindowsApps under the C:\Program Files directory. So I need to go for the “Look for another app on this PC” and locate where is the program (.exe) file.
The app was not found by using neither Windows 10’s Settings page or the “Open With” option from the right-click menu of the files. Recently, I faced a problem to choose a Windows Store app as the default app for a specific file type.
