And the question is?

Here is what is expected of enquirers:
1. TRY first what you want to do!
2. Formulate what was done by you that looks like an issue/not working.

The thing to look for is "file type association". It is done in the registry in HKey Classes Root. There are some programs which can do that for you, e.g. System File Association[^]
