I recently tried to open a .jar file with java.exe ((It was a dumb idea and I managed to open it btw)). However, thats not the problem now. The problem now is whenever I right click a .jar file to open with and click more apps, my OpenJDK Platform binary is on the list. How do I remove this?

Solutions that I tried was removing .jar extension subkey openjdk inside openwithlist and edit the mrulist by following guides from this guy. However when I restarted my PC and try to open with a .jar file to check whether the OpenJDK Platform Binary is removed from the more app list, it is still there. Anyone knows why?

  • I tried watching solutions like this link but I don't know this is relevant for my case. And I didnt check use this program as default when I first try to open the .jar file using java.exe –  May 16 '20 at 09:15
  • search the reg with the filename of openjdk and see if it is a openwith key - be VERY CAREFUL while editing the registry...I am on a non windows computer so cant check now. – Zina May 16 '20 at 09:23
  • I ctrl+f and search for filename openjdk however im unsure if its a openwith key, can you verify wether this is a openwith key? here is the screenshot –  May 16 '20 at 09:33
  • I can't. Your screenshot doesn't show relevant information. I would suggest you don't play with the registry if you are not familiar with it. Why does it bother you that the you have it on the list now? check Edit Open With List – Zina May 16 '20 at 09:43
