VLC does not associate extensions by itself it needs user input to do this. Associations are stored in your registry not in preferences. I'm not quite sure about the other comment here as to what .cab files have to do with .bin files, but is is very common for some file extensions to be used by oth...

Have you tried

Explorer....
Folder Options...
File Types (Tab)
Select .CAB
Click Restore (to restore it to it's default programme association)

?

File types changes are not an option with Win 7...Win 10. This solution won't work with them.

"VLC does not associate extensions by itself it needs user input to do this." Absolutely untrue. Google "VLC changes .bin files to VLC media files" to see the many complaints, going back years, about this problem. No, VLC does not need user input to do this. Yes, VLC does associa...

Here it is 2019 and still no answer that actually works. At least not with v. 3.0.6.

I had a similar problem (black screen, audio only) after upgrading VLC. This problem was resolved by doing an uninstall and reinstall. However, I can find no way to save any changes other than conversion (in my case, .mts to .mp4). Editing changes are not saved. It appears that the effects only work...

When you say you can successfully use other filters, do you mean that you can save your changes and they will appear when you open the file in some other program (not VLC)? If so, PLEASE tell me how you did it, because I can't bake any changes into the video. As someone else put it, the effects only...

Sadly, the tutorial provided by Hitchhiker does not work. (Nor does the YouTube video tutorial.) I've tried applying this tutorial and others and nothing works consistently. When testing, I did manage to save a Sepia video and also one that was flipped 90 degrees. But nothing else works so far. Here...

I have just downloaded the most recent version of VLC. I opened an .mts clip, made edits (color, contrast, etc.). I saved it (I thought) with a different name, in its original folder on my computer. I saved it as mp4. HOWEVER: The edits only show up when I play it on VLC viewer. The edits do not sho...

Here's a suggestion:
Please delete this useless thread, so that those of us looking for answers to our questions don't waste time on it.

I'm using VLC snap to capture frames from video, both 4K and 1080p/60. With capture set to JPEG and PNG, there are no problems. But with capture set to TIFF, although the preview thumbnail shows up when I do the capture, the resulting TIFF file is unreadable. Cant' read it with PhotoShop, FastStone,...

You have had better luck than I have. I've spent the entire day trying to extract frames from video (using Win7) and nothing at all saves to any file I create. I've even searched the computer for the results and come up with nothing. Very frustrating. BTW the instructions on the site you mention mus...
