I have a 250GB HDD for my system and a 60GB SSD using a SATA port.

I installed most of my applications on the SSD.

There's a strange thing though. I can not change the default open-with program to a program which is on the SSD.

I think it may be caused by permission so I gave my user a 'full control' permission on the security tab in disk properties.

But changing permissions is not work.

After I choose an application (I've tried Notepad++, Sublime, 7Zip, etc.), nothing is added in the below window:

Also, if I install 7Zip on my machine, the right click menu items can not be added.
