How do I setup up FC to use mspaint.exe as an editor?

I can launch mspaint.exe from a command line with mspaint.exe but FC does not respond to it.
How do I do it? Thank you.
PS: Freecommander is the best!

The system tries to find mspaint.exe in the dir of the file to edit.
Edit your FC definition and set the full path to it.
In Windows 11 for example:
C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\mspaint.exe
Windows 11 Home, Version 24H2 (OS Build 26100.4351)
Everything Version 1.5.0.1396a (x64), Everything Toolbar 1.5.5, Listary Pro 6.3.2.88
FreeCommander XE 2025 Build 933 64-bit donor
