To search for which file extension you want to change to open in another program you can search in the top box with a magnifying glass for that file format.

The current default is shown on the lower right with a :guilabel:`Change` button that brings up a menu for you to change it to something else. If you do not have a default application set you can press the :guilabel:`Choose` button to set a default button. To change a default press the :guilabel:`Change` button and it brings up a menu to choose the new default program for this kind of file.
To choose several common programs to end up using as default application use the :guilabel:`Default Applications` tab. For each application to change to a different default application press the :guilabel:`Change` button.
To reset your changes press the :guilabel:`Reset` button if you don't want to keep your buttons. Once you are happy with your choices press the :guilabel:`Close` button or press the :kbd:`Escape` key.
