    SRT files keeps asking me what program I want to use to open title changed


    I followed the directions below and Now when I download an SRT it just keeps asking me what program I want to associated with this file. I don't want a program to open this. How do I get it to stop asking me?


    1. If you cannot see file extensions already, go to Windows File Explorer, on the View Ribbon, check the box marked ''File Name Extensions', close Windows File Explorer
    2. On your Desktop, right click an empty part and choose New - Text Document, name the document XXX.exe and make sure you remove the .txt file extension
    3. Open Control Panel, click the Default Programs Applet
    4. Click Associate a file type or protocol with a program and let the list build
    5. In the left list scroll down to .srt, select this entry and click 'Change Program'
    6. In the resulting list, click 'More Apps' and at the bottom of the list click 'Look for another app on this PC'
    7. Navigate to the file you created on your desktop XXX.exe
    8. The list will rebuild and the association will be made
    9. Close all Control Panel windows
    10. Delete the file you created on your Desktop
    11. Now .srt files will revert to 'Unknown file type'

    :)

  2. Unable to open SRT Files with the default application.

    So I recently reinstalled windows 10 and activated them. After this update I cant seem to set the default app for SRT files to be the WordPad app. The SRT files are being stored in 4 TB mechanical drive that I didn't modify by any means before or after the
    upgrade. So every time I need to open an SRT file I have to choose the WordPad and even though I state that I want to use the WordPad as the default app for SRT files nothing changes. I have tried changing this option through the "choose default apps by file
    type" option in default apps in the settings but I cant seem to find the SRT file type in the list. Any help is appreciated.

    ***Edited Original Title from SRT Files***
