    Hi Rosemary,

    I'm Benedict, an Independent Advisor. I'm here to help you.

    This could be done by editing registry files. To understand more of this, kindly check this thread: https://www.tenforums.com/software-apps/163185-...

    You could also try changing the default app opener for a certain file format: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/cha...

    Please see if that helps.

    Regards,

    Benedict P.

    I did check out the links before I asked my questions.  It still doesn't say how to customize the list. Basically, I just want to switch word and edge around.
