Setting file associations is the worst UX regression in the W11 Settings app.
For example, say I want to set Irfanview to be my default application to view images. I need to go through every file type that Irfanview can open, then select Irfanview. I can't tell Windows just to use Irfanview for all the formats that it can handle.
In the W7 Control Panel, this was a single click.
