Stop Resetting My Apps

Stop Resetting My Apps is a tool specially design to prevent a common Windows 10 mishap, namely the random and periodic resetting of the default applications following an update. Not only does this make you waste a lot of time, but it can also be quite irritating due to the changes in file associations.

The program does not require installation and you can start using it as soon as you download it to your computer. The app comes with a single-window interface that is fairly intuitive and easy to navigate, in spite of the fact that it is not exactly a looker.

Speaking of user-friendly, it is worth mentioning that the utility dedicates a significant portion of its interface to providing you with details about its role and how to use it. As indicated, to prevent applications from resetting their configurations you solely need to mark them and the changes are applied automatically.

Functionality wise, the utility is as simple as it gets and the only things you need to do is mark the component that regularly gives you trouble. The app focuses primarily on the main Windows 10 utilities, namely Microsoft Edge, Mail, Photos, Movies & TV, Groove Music and 3D Builder.

If you want to undo the changes, then you can just unmark the utility. In the eventuality that you are not sure what to block, then you can just mark all applications and unblock them once you completed the update. By doing so, you can be certain that the file associations you set remain unchanged.

In case you grew tired of having to fix your operating system after each update and would like to make sure that the applications' settings remain as you configure them, then perhaps Stop Resetting My Apps could lend you a hand.
