Reply: Sounds like a bunch of Windows registry corruptions to me.
File associations (which seem to be the problem here) are
handled by the registry and it's that which relates
associations to applications to open them in. You clearly
have some kind of defect which is forcing everything to open
in Notepad. Download a registry scanner and let it clean up the mess,
making sure to keep a backup of the current registry before
you do. Hope that helps. http://www.pcfixreview.com
