Windows 10: How to add Edit to html files right click in Windows 10

I am trying to make Notepad++ default html editor. When I right click on a local html file I mean, a file in my documents, not on the web, there is no option "Edit" at all, only Open.

I tried running Notepad++ as administrator, Setting>Preferences>File association, and registered html extension, but it did not achieve anything- still only "Open with" option, not Edit.

My default web browser is set to Chrome if it makes a difference.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
