I accidentally made all my rar files open with a program, How do I get rid of that??
I don't want to get rid of the program, I just want to keep my files from getting opened with the chosen program

Hi, download Default Programs Editor and run it.

https://defaultprogramseditor.com/

Click on File Type Settings.
At the bottom, click on Change 'Open With' programs.
Choose the .rar File Extension from the list and choose Next.
Select the program(s) that you have associated with .rar files click the Delete button.
At the bottom, click on Save 'Open with' List. You will likely get a User Account Control warning, select Yes.

I hope this helps!
