Change double-click behavior of assets to open with an application
Assets can open different applications or editors when opened with a double-click.
Prerequisites
Overview
In the below steps, we overwrite the current application with a new application. We have to be very sure about the name of the current application and the new application. Check the Master data of "Asset Applications" to get an idea about different application names. The id in master data is the name we use.

The example in steps below shows how we can change the double click behavior of assets that open in Metadata application to Metadata-translation application
