    Faded checkbox at 'Open with'?


    At an 'Open with' why would the checkbox to 'Always use the selected program to open this kind of file' be faded?

    Hello Advice Pro,

    What type of file is this for, and method did you use to get to the "Open with" window? If through Default Programs, then that is normal.

    Open With - Change Default Program

    Hope this helps for now, :)
