Hello,
I just upgraded to Windows 11 from win 10 (not a fresh install), and all images were reset to being handled by windows apps, but i can't for the life of me, find the place to set Xnview MP to handle all types of images like in win 10, but instead i only get the option to set the default one by one.
it is not a real issue, just annoying to do manually for that many extensions. Is it not possible anymore?
I also think to remember for the installer to have, at the end of the installation, a pop up window that managed the file associations or some sort, but it didn't show up when i reinstalled xnview mp.
If anything, this post will be for posterity, because i have been trying to find something specifically for this and i had no luck.

i think that on Win11 you need to set it one by one

you can associate multiple extensions at once via 3rd party app, eg SetUserFTA

Thank you for the suggestion, but once i realized i needed 3rd party apps to make win 11 work as i wanted i went back to win 10, i will keep using it until M$ pries it from me.user0 wrote: Sat Feb 15, 2025 11:46 am you can associate multiple extensions at once via 3rd party app, eg SetUserFTA
