So, I installed SP1 yesterday and now I'm having problems using Notepad++ as the default to open .txt files (within Explorer - works fine if the file is on the desktop). It's definitely set as the default - if I open the list of default programs it's in there, but if I click on a .txt file in Explorer (or Directory Opus) it opens in Windows Notepad.
I've tried several other programs (OpenOffice.org, Crimson Editor, even WordPad) and they work fine (i.e. the default "sticks").
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but it made no difference. Searched through all the options and couldn't see anything that might work. Google didn't help. I'm at a loss.
Any (useful) suggestions would be welcomed.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Okay - fixed it. Needed to Go into Settings>Preferences>File Association and move .txt to the "Registered exts" column. Not sure why it had stopped working in the first place though.
