Cannot associate program with file
I am trying to associate mp3's with GOM player. I once had this associate but changed it to WMP but want it back to GOM.
When I try to change the associate to gom by selecting gom.exe(gom doesn't show up in the normal list) then click ok it defaults to something else(usually the top program in the list).
If I use properties(RM on file -> properties -> change) and try to change it defaults to WMP.
mp3 doesn't show up in GOM's file associates either. I'm not sure why it is not allowing me to make the association. I didn't know there was any "validation" logic behind associations and I could associate anything with anything I wanted?
While I imagine I could hack the registry I'm looking for the reason why it isn't working.
