    yes Windows applies the strings "Chrome HTML Document" or "PDF File" based on the info that the application provides, so if you change the application, the string may (and likely will) change. that only affects how the file is described on your system however. another persons system may use a different application, and thus windows will deliver the string that that application tells it to when opening that same document. this is just part of how windows describes files. remember, windows doesn't know what most types of files are. it only cares about what app opens them.
