Takes over DOCX default without asking #112

Closed dmonder closed 2 years ago

dmonder commented 2 years ago

Just installed PanWriter only to discover it takes over the DOCX (and probably other) default for Windows 10 without ever asking me if that was OK. It was definitely not OK. I plan to use these side by side and should have the option to do so. Now I have to go through and fix all my defaults back to the original program. Please add a prompt before making this change.

does this also happen on Windows 11? I'm not sure what electron builder does exactly on windows... PanWriter just uses this: https://www.electron.build/configuration/configuration.html#PlatformSpecificBuildOptions-fileAssociations

Yes, this also happens on Windows 11.

Maybe you can add an option to the install process for the user to choose to add file associations or not?
