For more information, see the section on Changes to how Windows 10 handles default apps in this post. Per-user default settings are specific to an individual user account on the system. If per-user default settings are present, they take precedence over corresponding per-computer defaults for that account.
As of Windows 8, the extensibility system for file type and protocol defaults is strictly per-user and per-computer defaults are ignored. SPAD also changed in Windows 8 to set per-user defaults. This topic provides independent software vendors ISVs with a quick guide to the steps necessary to register and manage application defaults in Windows Vista and later.
Links are provided to more in-depth articles about each section's topic. Default Programs is a feature introduced in Windows Vista, accessible directly from the Start menu as well as Control Panel. It provides a new infrastructure that works with standard user privilege not elevated and is designed to enable users and applications to manage per-user defaults.
For users, Default Programs provides a unified and easily accessible way to manage defaults, file associations, and Autoplay settings across all applications on the system. For applications, using the per-user scope provided by the Default Programs APIs offers the following advantages:.
Default Programs APIs offer a reliable and consistent mechanism for self-checking the default status and reclaiming lost settings without resorting to writing directly to the registry. However, as of Windows 8, we do not recommended that applications query the default status because an application can no longer change the default settings—those changes can be made only by the user.
To enable your application to manage defaults effectively, you must register your application as a potential default program. The UI of both the program defaults Set your default programs and file associations Associate a file type or protocol with a program can be reused and called from within an application.
This enables applications to provide a standard user experience for managing defaults and saves ISVs from having to develop a custom or equivalent UI. As part of the Set your default programs page of the Default Programs item in Control Panel, an application can provide marketing information and a link to the vendor's website.
This URL is derived from the Authenticode certificate that the application has been signed with. This prevents misuse and unauthorized replacement of this link. ISVs should take advantage of this feature to direct users to their website for updates and other downloads. Set Program Access and Computer Defaults SPAD enables administrators to manage computer-wide defaults that are inherited by all new users of that computer. Prior to Windows 8, SPAD also enabled administrators to repair file associations should they become broken when programs were removed from the system.

For some legacy applications, a full implementation of Hide Access may not be practical. An alternate method that achieves the same effect, but is not easily reversible by the user, is to uninstall the application. The following shows sample behavior and example code to implement this.
When the user clicks OK , the Programs and Features item in Control Panel is displayed so that the user can uninstall the application. The following code provides a reusable implementation for the Hide Access feature as outlined previously. An application can have many entry points within the operating system. The following are recommended locations for entry points:. The Open With shortcut menu enables the user to select an application that can handle a specific file type.
