Win 10 store apps as defaults keep getting prompt How do you want to open this file ?

Just wondering does anyone have issues with having win 10 store apps as the default programs for PDF and for picture files and every time you try to open it prompts How do you want to open this file ? Keep using this app even they are default. Change it to a non store app and you don't have this issue. It's not a huge problem I just find the store apps open very fast and the minimalistic look.

It only seems to have issues in IBM Notes mail database on the other programs it opens properly without having this prompt. I have installed Fix Pack 5 and still the same. A IBM notes database that I have created for storing documents it doesn't exhibit this behaviour so go figure what is happening.

It seems there are other programs affected like Skype so it could be after all a win 10 issue all we can do is wait and hopefully a developer using IBM Notes picks up on this error and hopefully can be fixed.  

Happy New Year!

It is only possible...
...to use traditional applications. Windows Apps do not work. SPR # PBAO9Y9DKE -> LO85614

Changed to reader as a workaround

Thanks for that at least now I know it is not something I done.

I will keep an eye for that in future upgrades

 

Thank you
