Cant pick or find file Association

Post by *johnstonf »

I installed TWO graphic editors (besides useless Skitch which i was trying to use, but it is useless for me). When i open a png or jpg file, and it asks the program to open it with, ONLY Skitch (and other NON-Relevant) programs appear, but NOT the two i installed (Autodesk SketchBook Express and Infinite Design). These do NOT appear it the list of programs to use. I get the same when I try to manually associate... they just ARE NOT in the list when the "Choose App" appears... I have rebooted, etc... no luck. Why do some programs NOT appear??

On Android, the target program determines (via manifest file) which formats it supports. Apparently there is no definition for PNG/JPG, or the definition is wrong.

Solution: You can define an internal association in Total Commander - Configuration. This will work only within Total Commander, since the Android system associations cannot be changed.
