Step 3Edit the extension
First things first, name the program. So put in what you'd like the Associated program to be called. Next up we'll click "New" to create a new action.
Type "open" in the Action box (top) and then click on browse to find the .exe file. Hit ok after that. If you start having trouble opening files with your new extension it might be a good idea to go back and edit the action. Windows automatically adds a %1 to the end file location line, this represents the location of the file you wish to open with the associated program. To fix this you will simply add quotes around the "%1" and that should solve the problem.
All that's left is to add a icon.
