Description

Default applications for file types and links can be adjusted from a simple desktop utility. This is useful when files open in the wrong program and the user wants a clearer way to fix associations.

It is a graphical settings helper built from development source. It changes desktop association configuration, so users should confirm file types before applying broad defaults.
