[SOLVED] Context menu preference is not functioning

Post by ineuw »

Using Windows 10 v1909 and want access to Textpad on the context menu. Can anyone offer a working solution? . . . Thanks.

Have you read All of sudden can't make Textpad default for txt files: Found Solution (as of June 2020)? Is your forum signature still telling the truth?

Thanks for the link. The method to register an app through selection worked at one time, but this no longer works for me. Also "Open with" is missing Textpad. At times "Open with" itself is missing. So, I'll wait for a solution since someone always finds one. In the meanwhile, I am trying with Easy Context menu editor to add TP.

I ended up using Easy Context menu 1.6 Freeware. It works on all levels of context menus by trial end error.
