I've accidently associated zip files to be "opened with" adobe reader and I
can't figure out how to restore them to original.

Thank you

Right click on a file, choose run with, select the choose

zip files.

What is the default program? Nothing about zip files appear in the options.
Only things like WordPad, paint etc.
