Adobe Bridge 2017 different options Windows 10 and Mac OS for Open With

I have been trying Adobe Bridge on a Windows 10 computer and recently tried a friends Mac and found a difference.

On my PC when I right click say a JPEG or TIFF I only get the option to Open With Adobe Photoshop.  With the Mac Open With gives me a list of applications that I can open my file with.

If I use Windows Explorer and right click Open With I get the other options as well, for example, Photoshop, Paint, FastRaw, Windows Photo Viewer, Photos etc.

I would like to have these other options presented in Bridge in WIndows but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this.  My friend has even suggested that this is a bug in Windows version of Bridge.  I find this difficult to believe as I would have thought a google search would reveal this.

Any way that I can make this work

Thanks

    Hi Terryw,

    The difference here is because of different operating systems, Bridge is doing the same thing at my end as well but I have a few Adobe software listed in the list when I right click and choose Open With and that's because I have those Adobe softwares installed on my system.

    This is not a bug, this is an expected behavior of Bridge on windows PC.
