    JSON FILES

    Hi Acemere, it is not easy to remove a file association in Windows 10,

    Open Windows File Explorer

    On the view Ribbon (tab) check the box marked 'File Name Extensions'

    Close File Explorer

    Right click your Desktop and choose New - Text File

    Change the file extension on that new file from .txt to .exe

    Confirm the change

    Right click a .json file, choose open with - Choose another App

    Check the box marked 'Always use this app to open .json files' - IMPORTANT!

    Scroll to the bottom and click 'More Apps'

    Again scroll to the bottom and choose 'Find another app on this PC'

    Navigate to the dummy file exe on your Desktop and click OK

    The .json file will not open

    Delete the dummy exe file on your Desktop and restart your PC

    The file association will then be broken!

    Hi Acemere

    The steps above create a dummy exe file, which you point windows to open json files with, then you delete the dummy exe and restart, When you restart the dummy exe will not exist, so Windows will not know how to open json files and that file association will
    revert to unknown and the icon should be the default white icon . ..

    JSON extension files

    I accidentally changed json files to notepads.

    Right Click a json file, select 'Open With' - 'Choose Another App', in the resulting list select the app you want to use to open this type of file.

    If the App does not appear in the list, click 'More Apps', again check the list for the app you want to open this kind of file. Finally, if the app is not in the list scroll to the bottom and click 'Look for another App on this PC', then find the app by
    navigating using the Open File Dialog

    NOTE: when you find the application you want to open json files with, check the bos marked 'Always use this App to Open json Files' and clock OK.

    From then on you can double click a json file to open it in the correct application . . .

    I Hope this Answers your Question!
