  • Thanks for this. Really didn't help my situation. I have a .package file that was opening without a file association. During a windows update, windows assigned it a program that does not open the files. Now I don't know how to remove it because it's asking me for an alternate program to open the file. I want to reset the association to Unknown. THis requires a change to the registry but i haven't found any good tutorials on how to do that. If you could help I would appreciate it.
