Hello,

I have MS Office 2007 and MS office 2013 applications installed in my computer. My question is how can I set MS Excel 2007 as my default application instead of Excel 2013. I have tried changing default Excel by going to the Properties of the file and click "Change" and went to Excel 2007 directory which is in Office12 folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12\EXCEL.EXE" but when i double click that one it is still selecting Excel 2013. Does anyone knows the trick or registry tweaks?

BTW, I'm trying to set Excel 2007 as default program for .txt files.

How can I also remove Excel in MS Office 2013 suite.
