2If you want to change a file association in Windows you can right click on it and go to properties, but surely that's not what you're asking. – ziondreamt Aug 01 '16 at 18:12

I finally found the answer after many tests When i open the text file with my app from open with menu in windows
public static void main(String[] args) {
FileReader file_reader = null;
try {
new Notepad().setVisible(true);
file_reader = new FileReader(args[0]);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(file_reader);
String temp = "";
while (br.ready())
{
int c = br.read();
temp = temp+ (char)c;
}
myarea.setText(temp);
br.close();
file_reader.close();
textContent = myarea.getText();
} catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Notepad.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
} catch (IOException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Notepad.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
} finally {
}
}
you must make your app exe
