prevent Windows from resetting file associations Stop Resetting My Apps can prevent Windows 10 from resetting the default file associations for various file types. The reset action usually takes place after a Windows update or an update of one of the Windows built-in apps such as Microsoft Edge, Photos or Groove Music. For example, all of a sudden your photos are opened with the Microsoft Photos app instead of your favorite image viewer. Stop Resetting My Apps helps you to work around this issue by preventing some of those built-in apps from being set as the default apps. Simply select which apps you want to block from becoming the default handler for any file type. This will not not affect the functionality of those apps. Copyright Snapfiles.com
