Make sure to change PhpStormPath to match your current path.

Nice... Remember you need to run this as administrator in order for it to work. I had to put a pause at the end of the script to see that nothing was being changed.

This method worked in Windows 10. In Windows 11 Phpstorm disappeared from the right click menu and setting it again with this method does not change anything :(

It still works just fine ✔️ , but you have to right-click on the folder from the outside.

This will not work if the installation was done with JetBrain Tool Box... any solution?

Please change the pycharm path as following:

C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\JetBrains\Toolbox\apps\PyCharm-P\ch-0\223.7571.203\bin\pycharm64.exe

It works for me.
