While configuring the context menu "Open With" for a zip file, I
input a wrong application for opening the zip file by default.

Instead of clicking on "winzip64.exe" I clicked on "wzwipe32.exe".

Now, how do I get rid of the wrong input?

Please help if you know how. Thank you.


You might be able to remove the association with Nir Sofer's
FileTypes Manager:

There is a 32 and 64 bit version available


I thought about that when studying this problem. I don't have the OP's
program installed, but I do have 7-Zip installed. It is on the .zip "Open
with" submenu and is listed as an option for default program selection, but
"Open with" is not shown for .zip in File Types Manager, and I can't
find it in the registry.
