Windows 10: Windows 10 asks me what program I want to use to open this file each time the desktop...

Each time my Windows 10 desktop computer starts, a pop-up asks me what program I want to use to open this file. It does not say what file it is talking about, but it has a box to tick to always use this app to open .Hp4364 files. How do I find out what file it is trying to open and what can I do about this? I do not know why it started doing that yesterday. I installed a new version of VLC Player, but after uninstalling it that message still pops up when the computer starts, so I guess that does not have anything to do with it.

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
