In a moment of cosmic insight, I changed the program association of "adafruit-circuitpython-metro_m4_express-en_US-7.3.1.uf2" to Windows Notepad. As it is a binary file this action was nonsense but ...
HOW TO CHANGE IT BACK?
What is the correct association for a UF2 file in Windows 10?
Your assistance is greatly appreciated

Re: HELP! Metro M4 Bootloader
Quick and Dirty Regedit Solution that Seems To Work:
"Answer: Delete Key and Subkey at
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.uf2"
This returned "Type" in File Explorer and Properties to UF2 file but retained the Notepad icon and associations with Notepad.exe in the registry at Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\uf2_auto_file for 'Edit' and 'Open'. I deleted these as well.

There is none. So deleting the reg key to remove the association should work.What is the correct association for a UF2 file in Windows 10?
