PowerDVD does not appear in list when choosing default video player

I have PowerDVD 14 on my Windows 10 computer and I want to make it the default video player. I also have PowerDVD pre-installed by Lenovo on my Lenovo computer. It appears as PowerDVD for Lenovo Idea in the apps list of the StartMenu. When I go to Windows 10 settings and try to make PowerDVD 14 the default app, the list of choices shows PowerDVD by Lenovo but not the PowerDVD 14 (see attached image). How to make PowerDVD 14 my default video player? Thank you.

This may work. I have Win 11 on my pc.

In Win11. Right mouse click on the image, Click Open with, Choose another app, Choose an app on your pc, Program Files (x86), CyberLink, PowerDVD14, PowerDVD14.exe, Open, Just Once or Always.

Thanks for the tip, but it did not answer my question. I don't know how the forum back-end triggered the note that this answered my question.
It did not answer my question because my OS is Windows 10 whereas your tip applies to Windows 11. In Windows 10, I do not see the option "Choose an app on your pc....". It shows only the apps I showed in the screen capture or to find an app in Windows Store.
