Find the file extension in question under this key in the registry: | |
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts | |
Deleting the sub-key with the same name as the extension you want to un-associate will delete the default program association. You'll have to kill and restart explorer.exe for this to take effect. | |
You may also need to remove the same sub key from HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT as well. |
