  • From the list select the extension (such as MP3) for which you want to change the default launch application, then press the Change... button.
  • When the 'Open With' dialog displays, select the application that you wan to use to open the selected file type. If you can't find the application, press the Browse... button and find the program that you want to use to open that file type.
