Windows 10 won't let me set default apps for file extensions
3 answers
I want to change txt files to open with a specific .xls it used to work but for some reason now it won't save anymore when I set the .xls program as the default. It's a serious pain to have to open each txt manually and change it to xls - I want them to just all open with this spreadsheet program instead of wordpad again. I have windows 10 64 bit. Please help.
