    Useful to get a pictoral/icon view of programs with their associated registry entries and to be able to jump into the registry entry to remove stubborn obsolete entries. Primarily meant for program association editing, but there may be more intuitive programs to do that.

    I used it on Windows 10 with no problems. Now I have Windows 11 and need to change my icons again but can't use this program. It works until I try browsing for a different icon file, when I click the button to browse the program just crashes and I have to force it to close.

One of the best features of FileTypesMan is the abitity to delete corrupt registry entries when the "Open With..." option does not work in Windows. Deleting registry entries for a specific filetype sometimes corrects problems with associating applications with the "Open With..." option.

Extremely useful to set portable apps as default apps in Windows (works great even in Win 11)
