      Re: Notepad ++ .txt association keeps reverting to Windows Notepad

      So I found a handy utility that has resolved this for me.

      The program is called “SetUserFTA”

      By simply running “setuserfta .txt applications\notepad++.exe”, the problem is fixed.

      A link for the program description and download is found here.

      Additional details and instructions may be found here.

      I hope this helps my fellow Notepad ++ users!

      Best Regards,
