    Is there a way to reset which apps show up in the "Select an app to open XYZ"?


    As the title states, I just want a default list of apps to appear here, and not the ones that I have chosen to open other files before. Is there some kind of setting or registry modification I can do?

    :)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Is there a way to reset which apps show up in the "Select an app to open XYZ"? :)

    In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

    • Open powershell as administrator
    • Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
    • Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)

    How do I open file XYZ with application ABC ?

    Right-click .XYZ file > Open with > Choose another app > Click the More apps ↓ link > Scroll down > Click the
    Look for another app on this PC link > In the Open with dialog browse for and select ABC.EXE.

    If you don't want the .XYZ file extension to be permanently associated with ABC.EXE, make sure the
    Always use this app to open .XYZ files checkbox is unchecked before OKing your way out of the dialog.
