    Wierd .lua files opening in notepad accident


    I was downloading Davinci Resolve because my PC reset recently then while trying to download Reactor 3 from We Suck Less, I accidentally opened it with notepad and checked the box that says "always open .lua files with this app" with notepad. I have tried multiple things and it just doesn't want to work.

    .lua files opening using a program that doesnt allow it to work.

    By accident i set the .lua files to open with a program that doesn't allow it to work anymore, i need to know how i can stop the .lua file from opening with that program. I cant have it open the file with another program because it doesn't work when i
    do that, i need it to completely stop opening the program.

    .lua files opening using a program that doesnt allow it to work.

    Hello,

    You can open LUA files using any text editor such as Notepad or WordPad. Just right click
    file and choose Open with from the drop-down menu. On the submenu click the text editor that you want to use or click on
    Choose another app.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
