All of my files open with Notepad

For example, I am trying to download forge for Minecraft but due to me using Notepad a few months ago for 1 file, all of my current files of the same genre are all automatically Notepads. I tried to download forge but instead of running the client it pulls up the code in Notepad. How can I revert my files back to normal?

Welcome to the forum, @Johnsonp.

From what you're describing, it seems as if you've associated a file incorrectly with opening in Notepad, hence subsequent issues with opening the same file-type. I'm guessing the file in question has a .JAR extension. Is this correct?

If this is true, I recommend uninstalling the Java Runtime Environment from your PC, rebooting it, and then going to this page to download and install the package again. This should re-associate the .JAR extension properly for you.
