Description

When an application does not register any file types, you will not see any FTAs in Studio for that Application.  In order to have FTAs listed in studio, you need to create the FTAs  to that app on the host.
 


Instructions

Use the builtin windows command Assoc and Ftype to create the FTAs,

The example they provide is ASSOC .pl=PerlScript FTYPE PerlScript=perl.exe %1 %*

Once the FTA exists, It will be listed on when you click 'update file types" in the Application properties in Studio.
