Windows 10: Copy and Replace Default

I need to replace files from my old computer to new with Windows 11 and it just makes a copy. How do I change it so it asks me if I want to replace the file? Thanks

Replacing the default MS Paint with an older version (Revisited)

Art,

I was not suggesting using the Command prompt for the job you want to do.

Use File explorer then you'll be able to access the properties of that shortcut. I suggest copying it to your Desktop to do any alterations then copying it back afterwards [for which you'll be challenged to give Admin permission to proceed].

Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild

Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

Might be helpful to list what i've done I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.

 

Gigabyte to implement replacement or refund program for Intel 6 series motherboards

Problem is there just aren't any backup boards as all chipsets are B2 stepping, and B3 stepping won't be available until maybe late April, so there's no point in getting defective replacement boards *Frown your last suggestion sounds reasonable enough to me though *Smile
