Launching non image files from browser

Post by Oberon Prime »

Hello All,

So I'm using 1.80 and I'd like to know how I can get files that are not images or audio/video files to launch into their associated apps. Most notably archive files, text files, and checksum files (sfv, par and the like). As it stands everytime I encounter one of these in my browser I have to select them and press F3 to get them to load into their appropriate apps.

Does anybody have the solution on how to get them to load into their associated apps just by double clicking the way it does for media files?

Regards,
Oberon Prime
