Stupid nero..

I just installed a new copy of nero ultra 7, and when it asked me what files to associate it with i deselected everything. But for some reason its still my default for music. How do i change it back to winamp?

Go into add/remove programs, then "set program access and defaults". Then look for "Choose a default media player" then pick winamp from the list and hit OK. OR just go into winamps settings and make sure all the file associations are checked within the app.

you can manually change file association to winamp by right clicking on file types you want to associate with winamp and clicking on properties. Then, change the default program to open that file to winamp.

You can also type the following into the command prompt

Code:

---

reg add hkcr\.FileExtension /ve /d winamp.file

---

replace "FileExtension" With the file extension you want associated with winamp.

Don't forget you can also go into "folder options">"file types">select the extension and click the "change" button where it says open with.

Or just do it the easy way in which LP has already said. :frusty:

LP's way isn't necessarily the easier way. Just not as l33t :p

That's what I usually do when ACD or Nero turns out to be my default music and video players.

The easy way out is the best way out.
