    Another step backwards with Explorer and Taskbar


    With Windows 11 it always seems to be 1 step forwards, 3 steps backwards. Why do "updates" actually cause more problems than they solve? Windows Explorer is still in a state of catalepsy since last year and the Taskbar icons which were "disappeared" in January have still not resurfaced. There are no fixes and no solutions. Can't Microsoft get anything right?.

    Setting File Associations - Another Step Backwards

    Please advise whether you are unable to use the Open With dialogue to browse to your desired program.
    (A screenshot would help!)

    If the Open With dialogue doesn't allow you to browse to the program you wish to associate with a given extension, you might try adding it to the Open With dialogue using the Default Programs Editor (free):
