Keeps asking for default program to open JPGs

Hello,
Every time I try to open a JPG in XYPLORER, I get asked which program to open it with. I have tried several times to give it the program that I want and have it remember that, but the issue persists.

At first, I thought that this was a problem with Windows, but I can open JPGs just fine using Windows file explorer.

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

--Thanks in advance
--Jim

Hello,
Unfortunately, I am using Win10 Home, which does not have the Group Policy editor :(

I was just following another post and it said to create a Custom File Association....that did the trick.

i ve found one thing that leads to that.

its paint.net
i did uninstall paint.net and xyplorer began opens jpeg normally - w|o Open WIth dialog.

Thanks for the trick, paint.net definitely is annoying, I deleted it and I'm good to go.
