While configuring the context menu "Open With" for a zip file, I input
a wrong application for opening the zip file by default.
Instead of clicking on "winzip64.exe" I clicked on "wzwipe32.exe".
Now, how do I get rid of the wrong input?
Please help if you know how. Thank you.
In general:
SHIFT-right-click on a item of that type, select "Open With"*»
"Choose default program".
Didn't I say this yesterday? g
You may have done, but I didn't see it.
OK, no big deal. I've sometimes done the same thing myself.
Did you also suggest just
running Winzip to let it repair the associations?
Nope.
Except I didn't say SHIFT right-click. That's because holding down the
Shift key, which was necessary in older versions of Windows, is not
necessary in Windows 7.
By Jove, you're right! So many useful things in Win 7 require Shift-
right-click that I've got out of the habit of doing a plain right-
click.
Understood.
