Hi



I run LyX 2.3.3 on Windows 10 64 bit, latest version.



When I double-click on lyx files, LyX opens. But when I check the help system 
for version number, it shows LyX v. 2.3.1-1. And I thought I had uninstalled 
LyX 2.3.1-1 and switched to LyX 2.3.3...



I have tried to change the file association in Windows Settings, but it looks 
like I can only choose apps from Windows Store there.



Question:

·        How can I fix this problem, so that when I double-click on files saved 
in LyX 2.3.3, and I later double-click on these file, they open in LyX 2.3.3?

right click -> Open with -> Choose Another App -> Check "Always use this app to 
open .lyx files" --> More Aps --> (at the bottom) Choose another app from PC -> 
Select the correct version of LyX.

should assign *.lyx files to the LyX version you want.

OK – it turned out that LyX v. 2.3.0 and 2.3.1-1 had not been properly removed. 
I uninstalled them again, and now it seems to work.
