Editor's Opinion
OpenWith Enhanced replaces and improves the standard Windows 'Open With...' dialog and window in order to help you easily and quickly find the most popular programs used to open the "unknown" file types.
Editor's Description
Dealing with unknown file extensions can be quite a headache, especially for the not-so-experienced users. Happily, there are simpler and easier ways. One of these nicer ways is the one provided by the OpenWith Enhanced software.

OpenWith Enhanced is a small and simple freeware that lets you always know what program can open that unknown file on your computer and where to get it from.

OpenWith Enhanced comes in an unobtrusive and convenient package - it simply replaces the standard Windows 'OpenWith...' dialog and automatically suggests you the most popular programs used to open that unknown kind of file.

OpenWith Enhanced is small, lightweight and friendly. The price is also irresistible - it is free. Just download, install and you may freely use it right away.

Having OpenWith Enhanced installed on your system is really useful - instead of just presenting the original Windows plain list of installed applications, requiring you to guess the best choice for opening a given file - OpenWith Enhanced extends this list with some of the most popular applications selected by past users to successfully open that specific file type, based on a constantly-updated metadatabase automatically downloaded off the web.

The applications that have already been installed onto your computer are marked accordingly, so you will always know immediately which ones you have access to. If you choose a non-installed application however, you will be redirected to the appropriate program's official website that contains all the relevant downloading and purchasing information.

So each time you stumble upon an unknown file type and wonder what program could possibly open it, or you are looking for a better application to deal with the files you are already familiar with - all you have to do is simply right-click into the Open With... menu and choose.

Furthermore, the handy OpenWith Enhanced comes with handy additional options and features. It enables you to change or remove file associations (especially useful on Windows Vista and Windows 7 platforms, where such option was removed from the user interface) and clean the 'Open With...' menu of unneeded applications. It will also autofill file type description for new associations with the most popular ones.

Least but not last, OpenWith Enhanced is completely freeware. No reason to hesitate trying it.
