    Permanently select


    Is there a way to always select permanently choose "select a program from a list of installed programs" in the "windows can't open this file" dialog?

    I mean seriously, not once ever have I wanted to "use the web service."

    Thanks for your time :)

    No I mean entirely, even for new extensions. I don't want to see the dialog ever again. I know how to set what app opens what files.
