6.Click Advanced to open the “Edit File Type” dialog.

7.You can click Change Icon to change the icon to one you will readily recognize.

8.Click New to open the “New Action” dialog (or click Edit to open the “Edit Action” dialog if you have “Open” action defined).

9.Type Open in the Action edit box, click Browse and navigate to the folder where Notepad.exe is located, such as C:\WINNT\system32\NOTEPAD.EXE.
