Vista - Re: files open in wordpad and all gibberish

If Microsoft Word does not appear in the Open With menu, click the Browse
button and navigate to the WinWord.exe file located in C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Officexx. (xx wil be the version of office you have
installed)

Click WinWord.exe and select Open. This will add Word to the Open With menu.
Select it and make sure that the "Always use the selected program to open
this kind of file" option is selected and click OK.
