THANK YOU! A real hero right here folks. Its even more absurd that Windows couldnt be bothered to add a reversal function to the file system for the next 4 years after this video came out.

Perfect solution to a business file association mysteriously going from unknown to notepad. This is a five star solution to a Windows 10 quirk. Thank you very much.

Simple, but perfectly valid and functional trick, no messing with registries nor reset ALL default programs. Thanks a lot!

These comments look botted or something, everyone is saying the same thing so i was skeptical of trying it out, but it did and it worked, gl to anyone who uses it, it infact does not recover the original file if thats what you thought it would do, it simply just makes it unknown
