I still have W7 running on my new laptop and I have VLC installed whch I want to use as my default player. I have set all the associations correctly and set it as default in the control panel. Now the real hassle is that when I open the network and see my MediaTomb server as a network device I want to double click on it and see it open VLC but W7 will only open Windows Media Player. I have been unable to find any way to change this behaviour and it's driving me mad. Any vieo or picture file I click on opens in VLC but stubbornly W7 insist on opening Windows Media Player when I double click on the MediaTomb device on the network.
Can anyone suggest how I resolve this?

PS. Yes I could install Linux on the lappy but she who must be obeyed will get upset
