I was trying to open a file and got the "open with" option; the option I selected wasn't the correct type but I forgot to uncheck the "always use this to open this file" box.
Any ideas on how I can re-set it?

All you have to do is un-associate that file

go to explorer tool-folder options-types, under registered file types, find your extension and remove it.
Next time you open the same file type, it will ask you again

Left click the file once to select it.
Hold down the left shift key and right click on the file, you will find the option to "Open with" again.
