This issue is unique.

[X] I have used the search tool and did not find an issue describing my idea.

Your idea.

A small QoL feature: add a simple button that re-associates all the supported file types with ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors. oofile1 oofile2

Hi, @LeBrick-Studio! For which operating systems do you propose to implement this?

LeBrick-Studio commented 1 year ago

@LuckySpecialist, hello! I think the most ones are Microsoft Windows (as the native interface varies from version to version and hardly accessible to regular user, and the new versions only allow changing associations one by one, not all at the same time) and Linux (as most of the GNOME-based DEs don't have any interface to batch modify mimetypes at all!).

Hi @LeBrick-Studio ! I am not sure that the association can be made from the application settings in modern OS (Windows 8 and higher), but I have issued offer (Bug 61788) at your request. Thank you for contacting us.
