Batch file open with

I broke this before a few years ago and well it appeared again as one of the lads at the www.minasi.com forum posted about the same issue and how to fix it.


When I broke it, I was doing god knows what and had a backup, but was curious. Its simple to fix and shows us a bit more about windows and file associations.


First off, my best advice, if you did this on a production machine and do not remember how, rebuild it. If its a hurry try this.


From a command prompt type the following;
assoc .bat 
This should give the following output


.bat=batfile 


If not in the command window to restore the default file type association type


assoc .bat=batfile


Easy peasy
