Windows 10: When I open a .txt file from windows search, it opens minimized. How do I change that?

On Windows 7 I would search for .txt file and when pressed Enter on it, the notepad would pop up on the screen and I could access the file's contents immediately.On Windows 11, when I search for file and open, it starts minimized. I have to go to the taskbar and select to see its content. It is rather inconvenient.How do I make it open showing me a window? Thank you.

.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.

Only .txt files...

 

.txt will open open in Command Prompt

I don't know why but no matter what I do .txt will only open in CMD prompt and I have right click and go to open with every time which is annoying cause I use .txts a lot for noting stuff down in.
