It might be an administrator issue and wants the admin to open it. Now any time you click on a TXT file, it will open using the program you selected in the Open With dialog.

Now click on the File Types tab and scroll down to the file type extension you want to change, in our example TXT.

What is a TORRENT file?

A TORRENT file is a file used by BitTorrent, a peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing program, for downloading a file (often from multiple locations at one time). It does not contain the content being distributed, only the metadata, which includes information about the file or group of files to be downloaded, such as their names, sizes, and folder structure.

BitTorrent downloads are split among multiple nodes, which reduces the bandwidth used by the primary server and speeds up download times. Popular file types that can be downloaded using BitTorrent include digital movies and TV shows, music, and video games. Some are offered as free downloads, while others can be downloaded for a fee.

With so many great open source programs on the market, it’s pretty normal for people to use third party text editors, photo editors, etc. instead of the default programs installed on Windows.

For example, when I double-click on a TXT file, it always opens up in Notepad. That used to be OK, but now that I have installed Notepad++, an awesome text/code editor with tons more features, I would rather have all my text files open with Notepad++ instead of Windows Notepad.

So how can you change the default program for opening a particular file? Well, there are two ways to go about it. Note that these instructions are geared more towards Windows XP users.

Read this post if you want to change the default programs in Windows 7, 8 or Windows 10.

Method 1 – Use Open With Dialog

The easiest way to change the default launching program for a file type is to right-click on the file, click on Open With and click on Choose Program.

Now choose the program that you want to use to open files of this type. If it is not in the list, you can click the Browse button, navigate to the Program Files folder and click on the EXE file.

Once you choose the program, make sure to check the Always use the selected program to open this file box and then click OK.

That’s pretty much it! Now any time you click on a TXT file, it will open using the program you selected in the Open With dialog.

Method 2 – File Types Dialog

The second method is to open My Computer, go to Tools, and click on Folder Options.

Now click on the File Types tab and scroll down to the file type extension you want to change, in our example TXT.

It may be that when the app is out of beta it will once again be backwards compatible. There's going to be a time for ALL software to shed outdated, non-compliant code and therefore only work with recent or current operating systems.Bitching about $7.00 is sort of sad. Yet this version is beta software so I'm reluctant to do so. @ Moxiesozo: You may be right that paying for Synergy again is a small matter. Synergy download free. That said, your characterization of anyone who disagrees with you as 'bitching' tells us all we need to know about what your opinion is worth.It would not have been difficult for the developer to explain why backwards compatibility was removed.

Click on the Change button and the same dialog pops up like when you click Choose Program from the Open With menu. Go ahead and pick the program from the list and click OK.

You can do this for any file type on your computer, including pictures, sounds, videos, PDF documents, etc. I know that I prefer to use Foxit Reader over Adobe Reader any day because it’s so much faster.
