Quote:How to save file associations

Fortunately, the whole process comes down to just a few steps, but in order to do this, you’re going to need administrator rights to be able to run them.
First and foremost, make sure you create the default file associations that you want to preserve or transition to another computer. Once you’re done, launch an elevated Command Prompt windows and run the following command (to do this, click the Start menu, type cmd.exe, right-click the result and click Run as administrator):

Code:

dism.exe /online /export-defaultappassociations:PATH\myfileassociations.xml

This command will export your associations to a file called myfileassociations.xml stored at the defined location – make sure you edit the PATH in the command with the location you want to use. For example, I used as destination folder the folder called bgdftw stored on the C: drive. So the command looks like this:

Code:

dism.exe /online /export-defaultappassociations:C:\bgdftw\myfileassociations.xml
