I had heard from my friend that the CFG files merely be able to be opened through moreover notepad or wordpad. To select the program you might prefer to utilize. You be able to alter this setting for an each and every file, or you reciprocate this setting so Windows opens the entire files of the similar type in the software program you had selected. In this you have to open the folder which contains the file which you desire to alter. After that you have to right hit it off on the file which you want to modify, depending on the type of file, moreover you have to hit it off Open or position to Open with it and then hit it off or select the default program. After that you have to click on the files which you have to open.
