Example: I have just installed a new image viewer and now I want to view all images of any type with it. I select XXX image file and open its properties. IMPORTANT: in Properties window there is "No application selected" in "Open with" list. I select "Other application..." in "Open with" list, select desired app and press OK - "Open with" list does not change :(
I can also use "Open with other application" from file context menu. Surely it is opened, but my choice is not remembered.

Best regards,
