For some reason when opening a file with no default association, the immersive dialog still appears. Any way to fix it?
Also, the assocition set in OpenWithEnhanced does not get remembered.
I have the same problem. |

I have the same problem. I fixed the problem by rolling back system to a restore point. The culprit was Neat Office from App Store. It turned out to be a buggy repack of an old version of LO with intentionally cut functionality (no way to insert pictures into text, for instance). It broke a lot of things in the system. The new .txt files would be created with capitalized extension .TXT, and other things. |

I've been having various problems with file associations for a long time, so I guess this problem is just another problem. |

Pay attention to programs with wide range of supported file types, such as office suits, multi-purpose text editors, viewers, etc.

OK, this is slightly annoying me. Does anyone know how to edit these two context menu items?  |

I do not have "Search the Store" and have "Choose another app" in a submenu.
Anyway, the store thing, possibly can be removed by disabling the appropriate shell extension.
There is an utility "Shellexview". There you see all shell extensions and can disable them. This one could be of "context menu handler" type.

Searched a few sites and apparently it's hardcoded and stored in shell32.dll, so I'm SOL. It's no biggie, just a small annoyance. EDIT: I found it - listed as "Open With Context Menu Handler" (ofc) but I get this when it I try disabling it:  |

This is just standard warning if you disable extension which comes with OS. Disabling extensions is generally safe because, well, they are just extensions. The shell can work without them all.

OK, I disabled it, and restarted Explorer, but they still show.

I deleted the ones responsible for "Search the Store", and it just made that context menu entry appear blank. I guess it's up to you on which you prefer (maybe you would need to mod it with IDA to remove it fully)

Thank you so much! EDIT: Logged out and back in, and the changes took affect:  Thank you again, Jevil. |

I figured out that if you block the IP addresses "172.66.40.141" and "172.66.43.115", it disables the third party programs from appearing. I don't think it worked unless I'm still doing it wrong Block in hosts "extensions.frieger.com" (127.0.0.1 extensions.frieger.com 127.0.0.1 extensions.frieger.com 127.0.0.1 extensions.frieger.com ) |

Another way to break OpenWith Enhanced's network functionality is if you go into the DLL with HxD, use UTF-16 search mode to search for /getextx.php?ext=%s&version=%d.%02d and blank it out (that is, replace it with 00 bytes)

That was easy. And perfect. And thank you!

I'm not sure if anyone else has had this issue, but.. This is what OpenWith looks like on my pc, there's 6 empty program slots I can't get rid of.
Hovering over them gives me an empty tooltip, and opening with one of these empty slots opens an explorer window to the location of the file I'm trying to open. If I keep "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" checked, it opens the explorer window and trying to open the same file again, or any file with the same extension gives me this result: Pressing OK or enter just prompts me with this popup again.

Maybe you can use OpenWithView to investigate the empty slots
