Windows 10: Select a program to open this .txt file

Last year I uninstalled the modern notepad The modern notepad can be uninstalled without third-party software because I don't like it. When I try to open a .txt file now, it doesn't have a program to open with, but when I click "Choose an app on your PC" and then select C:\Windows\Notepad.exe or C:\Windows\System32\Notepad.exe it gives an error.What do I do? This is so annoying, I hate this modern "open with" applet. I appreciate any help.

Generating a .txt based file list in Windows 7

I want to be able to generate a .txt file that lists all the files and folders in a specific folder on my PC, but don't know the name of any programs that do that. Searched on google a bit and came up with this guide, but it's for XP and I can't seem to find some of the folder options to modify the .bat file. Any suggestions? Thanks

EDIT: The .bat file will do what I want if it is in the folder I want to do it in, but the option I want to add is having the right click option that it shows.

 

.txt will open open in Command Prompt

Only .txt files...

 

.txt will open open in Command Prompt

I miss the Windows XP file association manager, it allowed you to select which of the commands would be executed when you double click a file (open, print, edit, etc...), it was removed since Vista.
Some good people created the Types application, which you can use to select the default action of the file double click, all you go to do is select the "txt" extension from the list, right mouse click, hit "Properties" and on the "Actions" tab right click "open" command and assign "Default" to it.
Hopefully this will solve your problems, although I think your PC is probably infected with some kind of malware that will continuously change that setting back, so I also advise installing some anti-virus like MSE or NOD-32 and preform a full scan.
Good luck.
