More than that, I think the file association for many files types somehow got broken on that machine.


Well, I know for sure of only one broken association (*.reg files opening with notepad rather than executing) and I am pretty sure I broke that one myself. I don't remember the exact circumstances, but at one point I wanted to see what was inside a *.reg file (likely one that you sent me!) and there is a pretty good chance that I opened it with Notepad and failed to turn off the "Always use this application to open this type of file" check box.

Can you tell me what I have to do to fix that association?
