The command ftype ${file_type}="${path-to-executable_file}"
is used in the Windows command prompt to associate a specific file type with a specific executable file.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
-
ftype
: This is the command used to manage file types in Windows. -
${file_type}
: This is a placeholder for the file type you want to associate with the executable file. For example, you might use.${extension}
to specify a specific file extension like.txt
or.docx
. -
"${path-to-executable_file}"
: This is the full path to the executable file that you want to associate with the file type. For example,"C:\Program Files\MyApp\myapp.exe"
.
By running this command, you are essentially telling Windows that whenever a file with the specified file type is opened or executed, it should use the specified executable file to handle it.
