# Changing your file association preferences

# Overview

This page describes how you can use Studio, even if you are developing with ASP or other languages not yet supported.

By default, you can use Studio to create and edit JS, CSS, HTML, PHP, Ruby, XML, and other files. However, you can use the various Studio Editors with other file types, such as ASP files, by configuring support for those file types.

# For non-Studio file types

2. Add the appropriate file type.

   1. Next to the File Types list, click the Add... button.

   2. In the New File Type pop-up window, type the appropriate file extension (e.g. "*.asp").

   3. Click OK to add the New File Type to the List.

3. Associate the new file type with Studio.
