. This policy allows an administrator to set default file type and protocol associations. When set, default associations will be applied on sign-in to the PC.
. The association file can be created using the DISM tool (dism /online /exnort-defaultappassociations:appassoc.xml).
. The file can be further edited by adding attributes to control how often associations are applied by the policy. The file then needs to be base64 encoded before being added to SyncML.
