Well this all started when i started using Mangos model editor today, but anyways here the problem.
When i double click a folder that contains warcraft related files like blp's mdx's mdl's etc...
The folder tries to be opened with Mangos model editor, and when i right click the folder to avoid this stupid problem i see this:
Open with War3ModelEditor
Open

So basically opening with the editor is how those folders with the warcraft related files attempt to open.
Also i deleted the program and that option is still there,
SO how do i get rid of this garbage?

Right Click -> Properties.
In the 'General' tab, click 'Change'.
Then find the program you want the type of file to be opened with, and select it.

Thanks for the reply, but i think you misunderstood.
Heres a picture so you can see what i meant.

As you can see its folders i'm having this problem with. When i double click a folder that contains somekind of warcraft file, War3ModelEditor tries to open the folder, obviously that can't work though.
So instead of just opening the folder through windows explorer like it should, it doesn't.
Get what i mean?

Go Start Menu > Run
type in: regedit
Hit Enter.
The Registry Editor will now pop up
> Collapse the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
> Collapse the * Folder (It is called *, should be the first one inside)
> Inside *, collapse the "Shell" or "Shellex" folder.
> Collapse ContextMenuHandlers inside Shell/Shellex
> There will now be multiple folders, you may recognise your TVersity one.

Now, find a Mango's folder or one that says "Open with War3ModelEditor" or similar, I won't know the exact name of it. Personally, I have ones called WinZip, NOD32 Context Shell Menu Extension etc... Mango should be there for you.

Now, just select the Mango folder and delete it.
Restart.
Done.

I tried looking for it in regedit like you said, but it was not listed in there, neither was tversity. ><

This is ridiculous....I downloaded the program and again, neither mango's editor or tversity appeared. ><

Edit: Fuck it, i just decided to system restore, thankfully i had a restore point from yesterday.
Thanks for all the posts, i learned some new things.

Can't remember the command, but it can be done manually. It's something like ftype, or like that.
