Unknown File Type In Game Files

[PapaSimmz]

I have been seeing this unknown file type called realdeal on some of my files. I know there is some bloat/malware called Real Deal that I had previous removed from my computer when I found it but all of these files seem like they actually belong. It seems like whenever I previously had the bloat/malware it changed a certain file type to be the name of realdeal. I have run many anti virus softwares on my computer include Anti-malware bytes and they all come up with there is no problem.

I cannot find what the file extension is (.exe, .ppt, .doc) and when I go to folder settings and force it to always show the file extension, nothing pops up after the file name.

 

If anyone has had this problem before or knows what these file types should be (by checking on your own computer if you have any of the games seen in the pictures) please let me know.

It might be that those files never had a file extension to begin with and the type column would have just said File before that real deal thing hijacked it, and as the most likely way to fix this is to go through the registry which might cause more issues the best way to restore the associations is to wipe the hard drive and start from scratch.
