default movie player
 

hello
my first post so here goes.
my default movie player when i try to prview any downloads or when completed is windows media player which i don't want it to be.
i have some how managed to get i tunes as my default music player(the way i want it) but dont know how to change the default movie player which never works anyway as it never has the required codec.
another program/player i have does and i want to make that my default.
help please

simply go to a movie file, right click on it and choose 'open with' and then choose your desired player from the list, and check the always box

right click doesn't work
 

peerless
tried the right click thing and open with is not one of the options unless i'm doing it wrong?
the options include stop sharing this file,launch delete but not open with?
what am i doing wrong?
help
thanks for your quick reply by the way.
any ideas

no...you do the described routine via windows, not LW...i.e. you go find your downloads folder directly, and then right click on the file...etc....

thanks
