Is there some kind of placeholder to push the system-default to the top of my PFA? Something like that I could place on top of my own PFA for samp-extensions?

Certain file types fire up a lot quicker with registered applications compared to my considerably slower portable alternatives. I know I can press Ctrl Shift or Ctrl click a file to override my PFA assignment. But that would mean I always have to Ctrl-click, not to mention some hosts have nothing installed to deal with it. And then I click again. No big deal, just wondering if I am missing out on a smoother method.

You can't push the default-system-association item of the OpenWith menu to top.
You have to create new PFAs to trigger that with #1053;
Add this PFA as the first one This won't trigger by default but you'll find the item at top of the OpenWith menu
[edit: better suggestion]

Oh, you want to override particular PFAs only:

Exactly what I had hoped for. Except for my faulty logic to begin with. I had assumed it would just pick the next in line if the system has nothing to offer. But that's negligible, I just trigger it again, this time with POM to pick my portable alternative. A lot better than the other way round, when my portable substitute came up by default, and slowly crawled to the launchpad, hindered by virus scans and slow USB hubs.

Thanks Sammay

btw, going ahead with this, you might see some weird behavior of the file-opening mechanism. http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=13616

Thanks for the link. Don't know yet whether it will affect me, but good to know and to have it bookmarked.

The weirdness may come out of the shadows when you have a selection of multiple filetypes.
