POM based on folder

According to the help file:
(1) Rather than just extensions, you can define any wildcarded filename patterns, including paths and individual filenames. Thus you can have specific context menus for all "Readme.txt" files, or for all items in C:\Windows\,
I can't get this to work. Let's say I want XY to open all *.html files inside D:\Help\ with C:\PaleMoon.exe
How do I set this up?

D:\Help\*.html>C:\Palemoon.exe

Exactly what I had tried in several varations - including quotes because my paths contain spaces - but none of it works. :( If this works for you, could it mean another setting overrides this association in my case?

This is my association:
D:\Help\*.html>D:\Users\Highend\Tools\Pale Moon\App\palemoon.exe

As you can see, the path contains a space. This definition works on my end...

Probably...

Case solved. A more generic entry was overriding it. Tricky business when you have the same file type tucked away under {Web Files} and multiple long lists.
