Enable Always Ask Before Opening this Type of File in Windows 10
I recently downloaded and wanted to install whatsup app on my pc.
But when the exe file started with prompt to run it or not i mistakenly unchecked "Always Ask Before Opening this Type of File" :/.
And the question is, Enable Always Ask Before Opening this Type of File in Windows 10?
Can't find the answer. Found for XP, Windows 7... But nothing for Windows 10 :/.
It has to be solution for Windows 10.

@Moab I think it doesn't. It's not this setting.

Click "Start" and type "regedit" (without quotes) in the search box. Click on "regedit.exe" from the search results.
Click "Yes" if a User Account Control message appears to access the registry.
Go to the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Microsoft Windows Shell AttachmentExecute.
Look for a key consisting of a long string of letters and numbers.
- These keys represent the file types you told Windows not to ask about when opening
- The key may vary depending on the web browser you were using when you disabled the option.
- For Internet Explorer, you will see
{0002DF01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}as a key under the AttachmentExecute key.
Select one of the keys under the AttachmentExecute key.
- The right pane contains a (Default) value plus values for each of the file types for which you turned off the Always ask before opening this type of file check box.
- Click a key to see its associated file type in the right pane.
- Right-click on the file type and click "Delete."
Click "Yes" to confirm and then exit the registry. Windows will once again prompt you with a warning message when you try to open that file type.
