Setting CreoView 3.0 as Default Program fo DXF

We recently upgraded from CreoView 2.0 to CreoView 3.0 (Lite version) I can not find a way to set CroeView 3.0 as the default program to open .DXF files (from windows explorer, for example). I have tried right clicking the .DXF file, open with-->choose default program-->navigate to the folder where 'pview.exe' is located and try to select. I select the file, but it will not set as the defualt. When CreoView 2 was installed, it worked fine to set as the default program.

I can open CreoView then navigate to a DXF and open it fine, but I am wanting to be able to have CreoView 3.0 Launch when a DXF is opened.

Are there any settings within Creoview 3.0 that would accomplish this?

Thanks for any help.
