No, we don't believe it's possible to set a UWP app as the handler (in terms of the PDF reader setting in Zotero, but the ZotFile setting would be the same):

I sent PDFs to my OneDrive folder using Zotfile Send to Tablet. I then highlighted the PDF on my tablet and now I want to get back into Zotero. I used the Zotfile Get from Tablet and I get a popup win

As far as I know, there's no way to get Zotfile to open PDFs using a "modern" Windows app (i.e., the kind of app you find in the Microsoft store, and where there's no .exe file in "C:\Program Files" t

That's not really about ZotFile. ZotFile can automate the process of linked file attachments, but they're just regular linked files. Zotero doesn't delete linked files when the attachment items are de

If it possible to setup a folder which will be monitored by Zotero and let it attach every new file? I know about zotfile, but it is a bit different.

I tried downloading ZotFile using many methods but none is working. I tried downloading it from Firefox as an add-on, but Firefox sends me the message that the "add-on could not be downloaded because
