As we are used to, it is normal for different types of files to open with a default application , either by default, or because we have defined it. This prevents the annoying avsio from appearing to ask us with which application we want to open a file ..
In addition to files, applications can manage protocols such as HTTP in our default browser or xmmp in Skype. Today we will see how to associate both types of files and protocols to different programs by default so that they open with them automatically.
