Default File Type Associations - Restore

Brink said:

MKV is on the list.

I mean it was missing on file type list on my PC (control panel>default programs>associate filetype) so I couldnt assign file to program. Mplayer was not on programs list so I couldnt associate it with file. I couldn't change 'open with' in file properties (there was no CHANGE button) and option 'Always use the selected program...' when right-click file, 'open with...' was greyed out. Reg file fixed it, I was able to choose default program for mkv files.

Today problem with OGG - I found it on my filetype list (associated with firefox), but there was no alternative application to change (I use Foobar2000 Portable). I quickly installed Foobar2000 as workaround but my question is: Is there any way to 'register' portable applications with Windows to avoid such problems in future?
btw. ogg is not on your list

ooops...I see it is still in use, i didnt spot mt12345 post just the 4 aug 2009 at the top of the page :)

I guess tutorials will be in use till the end of windows 7 life.

ah OK,

Iv been messing around with my androids system files so prob from my phone, I accidently forgot to untick 'open with by default' and now notepad is default opener of .dex, but as .dex is not a windows file then i dont think theres a problem really, as dex on my phone will have its own default program....am i right?

Thanks for yr response anyway :)
