For example, I have a batch program which helps keep track of homework assignments, which we'll say is located at .../hwhelper.bat. It stores each assignment in a file with a *.hw file extension. In windows 10 (and up?), next to certain file extensions, it will say something (for example, an exe will say 'Application', and *.txt files will say 'Text Document'. How would I make it so it will say 'Homework Helper Assignment' next to it and clicking on an assignment will open the hwhelper.bat file?
