I use TFS in Visual Studio 2015 and ask a question about MATLAB file associations. For files, there is no .mlink to MATLAB, as shown here:

Confusingly, there is an association for files .figand .mat, therefore, VS must recognize that MATLAB "exists". If I double-click one of these file types, it will open it in MATLAB, as in a browser window. This is the behavior I want for files .m.

At a minimum, I would like to have a MATLAB icon for files .mso that they are easy to find in a directory. As an ideal solution, these files will also open in MATLAB (rather than the VS text editor) from TFS.
I tried the File Extension option inside Options> Text Editor, but MATLAB is not an option in the Editor list for me.

It is worth noting that my working network is quite strict when installing software, so the fewer external add-ons, the better (ideally not). Suggestions appreciated.
