How to make portable reader AlReader the default program for .fb2 files in Windows7?

Question

Windows

The usual way to do this does not work: I right-click on the fb2 file, select "Open with", "Select a program", "Other programs", "C:\Programs\AlReader2.Win32.ru\AlReader2.exe" - - and no result. How to be?

Answer 1

There is also a checkbox to use the default program for all files with this extension

Answer 2

I decided by editing the registry - I registered the path to the program and the association for fb2. Perhaps the second was redundant. Actually, you will find the necessary branches yourself, but just in case I will indicate:
