Yeah, that would make the assignments mandatory and prevent users from changing them.
In the case of PDFs, what if a user is responsible for editing PDFs and has Acrobat Pro installed? The PDF association would be forced to Reader instead of Acrobat Pro.

I have tried several different approaches but they only work for new users - existing users still default to Edge. Has anyone been able to deploy Adobe Reader DC and set it as default pdf reader for existing users on Windows 10?
