Bridge won't open files using Explorer's file type association
After the 10.0.3.138 update, Bridge no longer opens files using Windows Explorer's file type associations. For example, if you try to open an mp4 file Bridge will not open it in Movies & TV. Instead it will open it in a third party app if you have one installed that handles that file type. Otherwise, if there isn't a file type associated with it, Bridge will simply not open the file. Changing the file type associations won't work because there are no options for any of the native Window apps. This was not the case in 10.0.2. For now the only fix I have found for this is to roll back to the previous version of Bridge. I hope this bug gets addressed in future updates.

I saw that there was an update for Bridge so I updated to the latest version as of this date, May 2. The problem still persists. Rolling the version back to 10.0.2 is still the only way to make Bridge function normally.
