@Windows gurus, Please can someone with a better in-depth knowledge of Win10 help?

If I right-click on a .txt file in Win10 and select 'Open with', I get a context menu containing 7 different Win 10 programs, including my default app, Notepad++.

However, if I right-click on a .epub, I get a context menu containing only 3 programs:

Code:

Google Chrome
Microsoft Edge
Sigil Portable (PortableApps.com Launcher)
-----------------------
Search the Store
Choose another app

none of which is my default app for .epub, namely, 'The calibre e-book viewer'.

I can also choose 'The calibre e-book editor', but only via the long-winded 'Choose another app > more apps' route, every single time.

I would prefer to see both calibre's Editor and Viewer appear on the initial list, like Sigil Portable does.

Is this possible?
