Policy to define how Chrome behaves with downloads/file associations in Windows

Project Member Reported by omadden@google.com, Nov 19

Issue description

Associating Chrome with the right OS file association each time the download occurs.
The Download dialogue box, in Chrome, needs to be continually clicked to associate particular files and no automatic process is available.

We have a customer using .SAP files and the users are always asked 'what do they wish to do with this type of file, despite the OS associating files, Chrome will continue to use the dialogue box to request user interaction.

Customer would like to associate the file in Chrome also for seamless transition to SAP.

NOTES: Deleting the "extensions_to_open" tag in the "preferences" file disables the association that allows the SAP client to start after downloading the file through Chrome.
