Upper Toolbar Help

Thx for the replies.

Certain files I DO NOT want a default association. Among many file types I will choose which app to open with. For example, I have several music player apps. Certain music I will use Player X, other music I will use Player Y etc. Sometimes it's whatever mood I am in, other times it will be based on the app's specific features. All this is my concern.

I need to put my W7 machine together and then take a screen shot to better clarify. Will be back tomorrow

Ok - I'm back.

I know of no way to NOT have a default association. No matter. As long as I can learn how to get this W7 folder/file behavior in W10. Refer to image. You can see the default app icon next to the 'Open' and all 'relative' apps listed in the pulldown. I want this in W10. How? -thx

Ah, that was replaced by the ribbon in File Explorer.

Oh man, Shawn! I totally spaced-out when you posted that image previously. I saw a tutorial for 'hiding' the 'Ribbon' and implemented that ('ribbon' that name, who would have thought? what 'toolbar' no longer popular?). Fortunately, you have shown me that I can ctrl+f1 as needed. That ribbon is quite a busy display ...

Thx mate!
