Windows installer silently changes default application
I am just beginning an evaluation of Oxygen. I'm running into several problems which I'll post separately.
The first thing I found is that the Windows installer silently changed the registered CSS editor to Oxygen.
I wonder what else it changed without telllig me? As a consultant I create and maintain a LOT of CSSs for clients. I've been using TopStyle for this for years. Now all CSSs open in Oxygen and I'm going to have to spend otherwise billable time to fix my system back the way I want it. I suppose I could uninstall Oxygen but I really do want to evaluate it for DocBook projects, and anyway I can't be sure the uninstaller would restore my system back to what it was before the installation.
The installer really should ask before making such changes. If it doesn't already, the uninstaller should restore the default editors as they were prior to instalation.
Thanks.
