I had a file that Windows did not recognize. It was called abc.per
. This is the correct extension for the file. The file does not open in any known Windows programs either (this is also not a problem). For some reason, I changed the file to always open with Notepad.
Now I want to get rid of the fact that it always needs to open with Notepad, but Windows just doesn't allow me to get rid of this behaviour. I tried to rename the file in which case it loses its extension, that is, per
.
How do I remove the extension and restore the default behaviour of the file?
I am on a 64-bit Windows 7 system.
