Restoring REGISTRY settings to default

   After setting up IE as your default browser your need to restore the file association of .html, .htm, .shtml, etc.. This can be done in registry, Let's see how to do that.

   Type regedit in run and hit enter. This will launch registry editor. Expand HKey_Local_machine > Software > Classes find and select .html, in the right pane double click on default and change the value to htmlfile, then give ok. The default value might have been changed if you were having any browser other IE previously.
