Works well as an alternative to the default OpenWith context menu option in Windows. Comes with a few options.

Ignore all the alternatives listed on this site, nearly all of them are totally unrelated.

The only true alternative is BAxBEx Software's OpenExpert, but that is a 32 bit DLL and thus only usable with 32 bit file explorers or 32 bit versions of Windows if you want to use it with Windows File Explorer.

What is OpenWith Enhanced?

OpenWith Enhanced is a small freeware application which replaces the standard Windows 'Open With...' window with an improved comprehensive yet intuitive dialog box.

Starting from version 1.0, OpenWith Enhanced supports user interface translations. At the moment, there are user-contributed translations to Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, French, German, Russian and Spanish.

In addition, OpenWith Enhanced includes several extra handy options:

  • Change the icon associated with each file type
  • Remove or disable for a current user any given file association (especially handy on WindowsVista / Windows7 OS, where such options aren't available through standard UI)
  • Clear the Open With... menu from any unneeded applications
  • Autofill file type description for new associations with the most popular ones
  • It works natively on both x86 and x64 versions of Windows and respects UAC settings And of course, it does what the Open With... dialog should do; allow you to easily open your different files with different applications !
