About the support of batch association for win11 with some other small improvements!

[sr79368142]

Dear sil3nc3,You have developed this tool very well, I have recommended it to so many friends around me and they are all raving about this app!
Although I use it perfectly on win10, only on win11 there is a small imperfection.
Because Microsoft changed the default application associated with the Win11 strategy, in the creation of the associated format needs a set of hash value as a check digit, if there is no hash value, the software can not be automatically associated with the format, can only be associated with a format manually, so it is a little inconvenient.
In order to realize batch correlation, I collected several tools related to correlation format on the Internet, I would like to make some suggestions for you after experiencing these applications.
I found the tool SetUserFTA, which is currently the only app that can implement bulk associations on win11, and it will mimic the system to create hashes automatically. This is its official website, https://setuserfta.com.
Its use is also very simple, you only need to associate the format of the software and the corresponding progid written together in parallel, for example: .avif, XnViewMP.avif
Then save it as a txt file, drag the txt file to its main program, and you can realize the batch association.
I think you should need it very much, I hope you can add an option in the application window again, so that users can manually select their system version, if it is win11 system, after checking the option, call SetUserFTA to batch association after batch creation of progid. This would eliminate the need for the user to go back to the setup options to manually associate formats.
I also hope you can add a batch icon setting function, for example, in the main program folder preset an icon icon folder, which can store various formats of icons, when adding progid can automatically retrieve the relevant icon from the icon folder to set as the default icon, so it is also very convenient for users to identify the format of different files.
I have a similar app here for your reference, https://defaultprogramseditor.com/, although this app has stopped updating since 2018, this app is the default app setup tool I've been using from Win7 to Win10, and it's the most convenient tool I've ever used! It supports almost everything in terms of associating formats except for not being able to add unregistered apps when batch associating formats in the default app! I hope you can get inspired by this software and it will help you in your development~!
Have fun with your development work!

Thank you for you feedback.
Will have a read and think about it...

Currently there is no time for further development during other projects. :|
Maybe next year.

Stay tuned.
