Make JRiver default music and video app
« on: November 09, 2018, 06:11:09 am »

Windows has become such a mess. Microsoft keep dumbing the user interface down, its frustrating.
I used to be able to give JRiver MC all its default file formats, but that configuration page is not available in Windows anymore.
In the attached page, JRiver MC is not even available as a default, although the program is installed correctly and it works.
Is there any way, I can give JRiver MC all its defaults back in Win 1803?

I have uninstalled and reinstalled MC24 and now everything is back to normal.

There is a file associations issue in Windows 10 in both 1803 and 1809 that's been reported back in May (and even some reports back to 2015) that Microsoft hasn't fixed yet. They've acknowledged the issue and said they expect a fix to be rolled out (to at least 1809) later this month.

I don't work for JRiver... I help keep the forums safe from "male enhancements" and other sources of sketchy pharmaceuticals.
