- Open regedit: ctrl+r and search regedit
- Find the right file: on my computer it's
Code:
Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.zip
- Export the file: File > Export and save it wherever
- Open and edit: Open the file by shift+right click > Edit in notepad and it's pretty quick to change things up using ctrl+h Find and Replace. Search for ".zip" and replace with ".var"
- Save the file: When you save it, you need to change the file extension to .reg - there are a few ways to do this but the easiest is to make the the dropdown menu below the Filename is set to "All Files" - and append .reg to the endf of the file
- Open the file: It will pop up with a warning, which you can click through.
- Restart!
