Easily view and edit file type associations

After installing a few dozen software tools you’ve probably ruined your file association, meaning you no longer control which app opens which file types.

FileTypesMan can help you sort this out by displaying a list with all current file types and extensions currently registered in your system. You can edit each file’s properties right on the program’s interface, thus fixing broken associations or removing non-working right-click entries, just to mention two possible interesting usages.

FileTypesMan doesn’t require any installation and while it may seem a bit too technical for novice users, it’s definitely a very convenient file type manager that comes in especially handy when your file associations are overrun by any app.

Repair and restore current file associations on your system in a quick, easy way thanks to FileTypesMan.

FileTypesMan is an alternative to the ‘File Types’ tab in the ‘Folder Options’ of Windows. It displays the list of all file extensions and types registered on your computer.

For each file type, the following information is displayed: Type Name, Description, MIME Type, Perceived Type, Flags, Browser Flags, and more.

FileTypesMan also allows you to easily edit the properties and flags of each file type, as well as it allows you to add, edit, and remove actions in a file type.
