Make TC viewer default for test files?

[YossiD]

Is there a way to make the Total Commander viewer the windows default for viewing text files, so that if I double click on a text file it will open in the TC viewer?

Its possible but useless for an TC user.
Inside of TC there is no double click necessary as there is F3.
A command line would look like this:
C:\Tools\Wincmd\totalcmd64.exe /S=L "%1"

Menu "Files" - "Internal Associations (Total Commander Only)..." - "Add..."

Code: Select all

Type name:       *.txt
Actions - Open:  %COMMANDER_EXE% /S=L "%1"
Change icon:     44 (then press "OK")
OK, OK

Click on a .txt file in TC...
Lister shows your textfile.

%COMMANDER_EXE% would not work in Explorer.

%COMMANDER_EXE% would not work in Explorer.

Who is using Windows Explorer again?

Fully agreed , but without using Explorer the whole question doesn't make sense
