I totally agree with you about Windows. Even Microsoft’s forums are generally unhelpful if you don’t want to use their OS they way they think you should use it. I’m gradually switching to Linux and will not be using Windows 11. Whatever minor conveniences I may miss out on are worth moving to an OS built with users in mind and with a friendly community of people who are actually helpful.

Disclaimer: soapbox. I feel like Windows is commonly considered to be user friendly. It may be easy enough to use, but I find it’s quite user hostile.

Yeah, I have to use Microsoft products for work and I’ve stumbled across their forums for issues before. I don’t think it’s ever once been helpful. Solutions on Linux forums are hit and miss, but still much better.
Welcome to the Linux community!

I finally got around to trying it, and I’ve realized that the “open with” option is absent from the right-click menu for some reason. I’m trying to find out why, but so far no luck. I checked the registry key, and it’s intact and should be giving me the option. I hate Windows.
