    Changing Explorer Default Action


    For htm files, the default windows action is Open. Click on it and it opens the file in your browser. Problem is I don't want to do this. I want to edit the htm file, but I can't seem to find anything to change the default. This doesn't seem to be an option anywhere. I could probably find the answer in the Internet if only I knew what the question was! Can anyone help here?

    Hello Dave, :)

    You might see if the "Open with Notepad" context menu from the tutorial below may be able to help with this.
