I have a little bit confusing problem. I'm not a beginner but I don't know how to do it..
For example I've written a program like notepad from which you can open files, save and etc. But when I set any custom format like ".blabla" to be opened by my app it is not working, so how can I make it to be opened by my app?
It is in WinForms
You need an entry in the registry for custom file extensions. You can try inserting a key in the registry as follows:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\

From my C# program I want to open the power options from the control panel in Windows.

Does anyone have an idea how to do that or where the exe is located to launch?
Try the following:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("powercfg.cpl");
