The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by asgarcymed in Windows XP Operating System, Miscellaneous
I use a PC with Windows XP SP3 (32-bit), and I always need to use a lot of PDF files. I installed 3 different PDF Readers/Viewers, since each one of them have different advantages and disadvantages, what forces me to frequently change and re-change the PDF file type association ("open with") <=> mouse right button click (context menu) => open with => choose application (PDF Reader/Viewer). Such procedure is not difficult but it is very boring, annoying and time-consuming (since the "explorer.exe", aka "Windows Shell", is slow and heavy CPU loader...). I really would like to only click once, each time I need to change the PDF file type association ("open with"). I think it is possible to create 3 *.reg (registry entries) files - "Open PDF with App1.reg"; "Open PDF with App2.reg"; "Open PDF with App3.reg". With only 1 click, I would be able to change the PDF file type association, each time. However, since I know almost nothing about the registry, I do not know how to make such *.reg files... Or you may even suggest a totally different solution/approach (other than using *.reg files)...
Thanks and regards.
