You should try to re-assign jEdit as the standard application for 
.txt-files. If You are not familiar with the registry, try the way in 
explorer: Utilities -> folder options -> file types. Change the 
association for txt-files to jedit.bat, that should be found in jedit's 
home directory.

There is a choice under "Global Options -> File System Browser -> 
Default Path".
