Hi, The associations with Notepad++ can be reviewed because i have lost my open : *.bat automatically open with Notepad++ it is a problem for testing or running .bat file, .vbs or other file type when this needed. You will can save the default action and rename it and make Notepad++ first but delete the other ??? Thanks this is a good software and you have keep the key in the registry for restore.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

What??
What he's saying is: after associating N++ with a bat file they no longer run in Windows. All bat files are opened in N++ as text instead.
I tried removing the association and even uninstalling N++, but .bat files are still not running.
Please fix this serious problem.
add this to a new empty file called batch.reg (or whatever.reg):
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.bat]
@="batfile"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.bat\PersistentHandler]
@="{5e941d80-bf96-11cd-b579-08002b30bfeb}"
that should fix the problem. Seems batch files are run using a shell extension
I agree N++ should make a backup of the registry if possible,
oops, you need this in that file aswell:
