A default program is used by the Windows system to automatically open a particular type of file. In other words, certain file types can be associated with specific applications, which enables you to have documents, multimedia files, or emails opened with your preferred office suite, media player, or mail reader, respectively.
Changing the default programs is an easy task, achievable via the system's Settings. Here, you can overwrite Microsoft's recommended defaults and choose the default apps either by file type, by protocol, or by app.
Designed to meet a sole purpose, that of saving the configuration of default programs much easier, Default Programs Manager features a plain simple window that comprises only two major options. There is a button for saving the current default applications and another button for restoring the list of defaults you previously saved.
Using Default Programs Manager is intuitive: you must first set all your default programs in Windows the traditional way, via the Control Panel. Once you are satisfied with your choices, you can save the list of defaults using Default Programs Manager.
In case Windows resets your preferences to its own recommendations, then Default Programs Manager can restore the list of defaults you previously saved with the click of a button. Advanced users will be happy to find out that Default Programs Manager also offers one-click access to the configuration file for the system defaults. In other words, if you are a more tech-savvy user, you can edit the defaults directly in the configuration file of Windows. It is perfectly safe to try out by regular Windows users.
