Can't Change Default Apps Windows 11 (OS Build 22000.120)

"...After Installation I Installed My Drivers And Windows Updates. After that I ran a Debloat Script. .."

What is a Debloat script ? Is it an .exefile or a .bat / .cmd script ?

As I understand from its name, it is a small program to remove some default programs, called bloat, off of your PC.

If this program is not for Windows 11 or is not made specifically for it, Debloat script may have made a mess of the file associations of Windows 11.

As Sibro.o suggested, it is better for you to start from scratch at this early stage.

By the way, I am also running Windows 11 on a very incompatible machine currently.

My cpu is incompatible.

My disk partitioning is incompatible.

I have no TPM.

I have no UEFI.

I have no secure Boot.

"...I'm Running Windows 11 on unsupported device. I made an ISO and Installed it...."

By the way, where did you get the ISO ?

Hope this helps.

After that I ran a Debloat Script.

The moment you run a debloat script all bets are off. I'd clean install again if I were you.

Let Me Retell You Then. Very First thing is that I'm Running Windows 11 on unsupported device. I made an ISO and Installed it.

After Installation I Installed My Drivers And Windows Updates. After that I ran a Debloat Script. It Uninstalled Many Windows Apps Among them was Windows Photo. Although I reinstalled it using MS Store along with 2 of its add ins. After that I Installed My Daily Apps Using Chocolatey.

Before Reinstalling Windows Photo I noticed that i couldn't open any Pics. When Double Clicked or Right Clicked to Open the Pics it would lead to Print Option. Although After Reinstalling Windows Photo All the Pics Opens Using It Now.

But I Wanted to Use Iranfanview for viewing Photos But I was Unable to Change the Default Apps From Windows Photo to IrafanView.

When I Search .JPG / .PNG or any other file type in Default App Setting. Nothing Comes Up Like This:

I also can't change the photos default apps using Explorer.

1. Problem With Right-Click and open with is that The Checkbox of Always use this app is missing.

2. From Properties of that PNG Files. In General Tab There Should Be a Open With Detail Which is Also Missng.

After that I Gave Up on Changing Photos And Went Ahead to Change The Default Apps for Songs And Video.

Although I was successful in changing the .MP3 Default App.

But I wasn't Able to Change Default Apps For Videos.

After that I tried Changing It From Explorer But Had The Same Problems As Photos. Also Right Now There Is No Default App Setted for Videos.

I already know that method and I also tried that and input .jpg, .png, .mp4 but it shows a greyed out choose a default only for all those file type like this https://prnt.sc/1lpxkpb

Hi.

Your wording of the problem is much too confusing. This is from your original post: "The new Default App Setting is way to advance and confusing which is unecessary complex for home users."

You may have installed an application from world wild web that has changed your file associations for media file types. You seem to run a media file from an app on the web.

If I input .mp4 in Settings > Default apps, I get my default media player, which is vlc media player. This is as simple as that.

Therefore, you must undo the changes you have made. If you have a Restore Point at a time before you made the change, you can restore your PC to that time.

Hope this helps.
