How do I change .srt file back to unknown?

OK, here is a process that will work:

• Make sure you can see file extensions - In Windows file Explorer, on the View Tab, make sure file name extensions is checked, close Windows File Explorer
• Right click your Desktop and choose 'New' - Text File
• Rename the Text File xxx.bat
• Right click any srt file and choose 'Open With' - Choose another app - More Apps - Look for another app on this PC
• Select 'Always use this app for .srt files', then navigate to the xxx.bat file and click OK
• Close the .srt file and then delete xxx.bat from your desktop and the Recycle Bin
• This will reset .srt files to unknown . . .
