Default How do you un-set a file association

Well, I partially answered the question:

regedit

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT

Under pdf were a program id (points to Acrobat) and "FirefoxHTML"
I deleted the FirefoxHTML entry.

I then duplicated the \.pdf entry here into
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\classes

But clicking on a pdf file still doesn't open it directly in Acrobat.
Now the choices are "Acrobat" and "Find another program...."

Don't pick find. Pick the more apps and you will / may have to find
the .exe file yourself.
