#Open a file in an app on your computer

When Drime Desktop is installed and running on the computer you're using, Open in also offers Open with followed by an app's name, or Open with default app. Drime Desktop then opens the file in that app on your computer.

These options are hidden when Drime Desktop hasn't been connected on this computer in the last 5 minutes, or when you use Drime on another computer. To install it, see Install, update or uninstall Drime Desktop.
