Associate a File Type with a Specific Program

I downloaded a program and it configures itself as default program for .mdf files and I see a ugly icon for mdf files in my windows right now!

As default, mdf files has a nice icon on it and there was no program associated with this file type.

Given that there was no program associated with that, I cannot get back the settings. Is there any way I can reverse this inside registry or something?

first place to try and mess with it is HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\ (and the extention itself of course)

Now you could do a quick export of that section, just for backup purposes. Right click Export, or in the menu File Export, Selected branch. . . Then delete away :-) Removing UserChoice will probably get rid of the re-iconification.
