Do this
-Right click on an .ldr file
-Choose "Open With" and if there is a submenu select "Choose Program..."
-If the program you want to open the file with isn't in the list provided use
the Browse buttom to find it.
-Make sure the "Always use the selected program to open this type of file" check
box is unchecked (unless of course you want to change the default program for
.ldr files)
-Click OK and the selected program should run
-Repeat for all the programs with which you want to open .ldr files.
When you right click on a file the Open command opens the file with the default
program and the Open With submenu should have the other programs you selected.
