Menu
I know this question has been asked before in various places but I've tried everything and nothing has worked for me. When I select "open with" there is no option for "always open .txt files with this app."
The answer I saw on a few threads on here and elsewhere was to open "regedit" and navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\sublime_text.exe\shell\open\command and then "kill explorer.exe" in Task Manager (which I couldn't find...). What I am doing wrong?
Does anyone have an alternate solution to this problem? I just want to be able to click on a text file and immediately be able to use Sublime.

Step 1: Open the downloaded .exe file from the downloads folder and begin with the installation process. Step 3: If you want Sublime Text 3 to appear in your right-click menu, then mark the checkbox and click on the Next button. Step 4: Press the install button. Step 5: Finish with the installation process.
Sublime Text is one of the most popular text editors in the world. It's jam-packed with powerful features like multi-line editing, build systems for dozens of programming languages, regex find and replace, a Python API for developing plugins, and more.
It's an issue on Windows OS side. Don't worry, I have a fix for you (the only method that works on the Internet):
Open start menu --> type in cmd --> right click on it and run as administrator
Depending on where you have your sublime installed, you will have to edit the path, otherwise, copy + paste this line in order to change the .txt extension:
ftype txtfile="C:\Program Files\Sublime Text 3\sublime_text.exe" "%1"
You can follow the same logic by always starting with "ftype" in front and then then you will need to find out what is the abbreviation of a chosen extension. You can do that by typing in "assoc .css"
For example, .php is PHPfile or .css is CSSfile
