Launch file with default app pref

View

Feature request:
A preference to launch files with their default app

For opening files it would be nice to have a pref to say "open files with default application"

Hello Preston,

the default application should always be on top of the list IIRC, so
one more button press (or, if you so want, a "double click") will
launch the file in the default app.

Best regards,
Felix

Right - It is the "one more click" that I would love a preference to avoid.

If I have a complex menu, it might have been 3 or 4 navigation steps to get there - so I'd like to shave off another button press. For my home theater application (where I want wife and babysitter etc to "just get it") being presented a list of programs is confusing. They don't inherently know that the first choice is the default.

Thanks for your feedback.

I've added it to the ToDo list.

Best regards,
