Hey there! I'm using Windows 11 on my laptop, and I'm having some trouble with setting my preferred media player, MPC-HC.clsid2, as the default app for certain video files. While it can create associations for video types, I can't seem to set it as the default app like I can with 7-Zip. Does anyone know of a third-party tool that lets you specify which program is the default for specific file types? Or is there perhaps a hidden PowerShell command that could help with this? Thanks!

To change default apps, go to Settings > Apps > Default Apps, and then you can set them based on file type. But I get what you mean about wanting a more targeted way to set them all at once—it's kinda annoying.
Right? It's like Windows wants to make it difficult to set just any app you want.
