Start an external application via double-click

If some other application shall be started instead, just navigate to "Menu -> Advanced -> Global settings: External Applications" and add or replace a command string. The first one is used when double-clicking while all subsequent entries are still available in right-click context menu on main dialog. The following macros are available:

Don't forget to use quotation marks if file names contain spaces!
