I asked about this a few years ago but I can't find that thread. I need to do this on another computer and I can't remember how. :P

Right click then open with then choose default program.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

If your program doesn't appear in the list, it hasn't been registered and can't be set as the default program using Set Program Access and Computer Defaults. For assistance, contact the manufacturer of the program.

The only options are for browser, email and media players, messaging and virtual machine – no software choices.

Eric, if that's all it took, I would have done it a long time ago :D
There's just no obvious way to get the Editor to show up as an option. When you browse to the Editor, there is no .exe file there.

Found it! The file is way down the list, totally separate from the HTML Editor :o
So... from Browse, it's Computer>C>Users>Name>AppData>Roaming>CCSoftware>"Coffee"
Good, now Dreamweaver can go ByBy :D

I have the shortcut icon on my desktop, it just wouldn't show up as an option when I browsed for programs.

Step 2 -In windows explorer > Tool s > Folder Option > View Tap > show Hidden files and folder .

Step 3 - Right click on any HTML file > Open with > choose program, if you don't see your favorite application in the list then click on browse button to locate your application , In XP case hidden folder of C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\CoffeeCup Software
