  1. DropDown menus in Windows 10. How do I put the program I want to use here?


    The MicroSoft people ignored a customer's question (me and 24 other people had nearly the same question) three years ago and are apparently pretty satisfied with themselves of answering a different question than was asked, even when this was pointed out. Frustrating.


    The question is: A Windows 10 Pro user is working in a folder. They decide they want to use an OpenOffice spreadsheet. They do have the Excel program but because everyone else on their team does not, they ALWAYS use OpenOffice to create and use spreadsheets, like dozens of time per day. They NEVER use Excel. But there is Excel in the drop-down menu and OpenOffice is nowhere to be found. How do we get OpenOffice on the drop-down menu. OpenOffice is already the default program when encountering a spreadsheet, the question is how do I get the OpenOffice program as a selection on the drop-down menu?

    :)

    Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

    Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
    Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
    Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

    NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
    But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
    What do you think?
