Windows 10, .msc file problems

[FlushaDev]

Whenever I try to open a .msc file, in this case windows firewall with advanced settings, I get the following -> "How do you want to open this .msc file?"

I do not know why this is happening, I haven't changed anything or modded anything windows-sided so I ask the community if anyone has a solution

There is not application, if you're using windows 10 and you search for firewall and you open the one with advanced settings is uses an .msc file and it should open directly, but mine seems to not to

Doesn't work, thanks for looking for me tho, might have to re-install windows

Open registry editor(regedit in RUN)

Navigate to -

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts

now delete the .msc key (folder)

This generally resets file associations.
