Windows 10: How do you stop Internet Explorer from being your default download opener?

Whenever I download anything, it downloads into Internet Explorer because I accidentally clicked always open using this app, however, I am unable to undo it no matter what I try and when I ask questions and find possible solutions, they don't work. Now, I can't download files or contact any Windows employees without a fee.

[IE6] Internet Explorer Cannot Download / [SITE]

Hi guys,

I'm having a problem with my Internet Explorer 6.

In any website I try to access, I get this

Internet Explorer cannot download / SITE
Internet Explorere was not able to open this internet site.

There's a downloading file right behind it. I'm just trying to access a site, but it shows that. Why is it? Is there a way to cure this error?
