default apps
« on: February 09, 2017, 04:41:44 pm »
On thing that I would like to disable would be the changing of my default apps. Everytime I run tweaking.com I lose Google as my default browser and I lose Windows Media Player for my default audio player.
What do i need to uncheck to avoid this?

alright so Shane has been investigating this and he fully explained this to me so what is going on is any time the registry is touched it does not matter if it is set back to default or modified MS has set the apps to restore settings to defaults. It's been frustrating me.   :teeth:

OK, thanks.

I'm sure it will get worked out soon.
