I associated a file extension using the command assoc
. But in the Explorer, it lists the type as the extension name. I.e. assoc .sh=ShellScript
will still cause explorer to show the type as SH File
.
Anyway to change it so it shows up as ShellScript
or better yet, Shell Script
?
EDIT:
Using assoc
didn't work. Seems to be something wrong with my registry. I figured that using quotes would put in a white space, but because it didn't show up in the explorer, I figured it may have been part of the problem.
