Try this...

To change file associations

1. Right-click a file with the extension whose association you want to
change, and then click Open With.

2. In the Open With dialog box, click the program where you want the
file to open, or click Browse to locate the program that you want.
3. Select the Always use the selected program to open this kind of file
check box.
