    Default programs doesn't show list all installed programs


    How to choose multiple media apps to open different audio file types?

    i want one app to open .mp3 and a different app to open .wav


    1 Choose default by type
    2 NONE of the apps in the list are what I want and only option "look for app in store"

    **** not find the already installed app on the computer? Whay is that option not available by default?

    :)

    Add Remove Programs in Windows XP doesn't finish loading program list?!

    Add Remove Programs in Windows XP doesn't finish loading the program list (It never even starts displaying any programs) and I believe it may be that a uninstall program messed up completely and Windows can't figure out what programs are installed because of it. What is the problem? Please?

    Default programs doesn't show list all installed programs

    Why is a favorite program not listed in the default programs?

    I would like to change a default program to handle all of it's capabilities but the list of default programs does not include that program. For example I would like to use WPS Spreadsheet program and WPS Writer program but they are not included in the list
    of default programs. Therefore, I have been struggling to change each extension to open with those programs.

    How can I get those programs included?

    I have rebooted several times after installing the WPS programs but that has not helped.
