Nice analysis Eric. ANy idea why (which program set this) this

Thanks Dharmendra! It was pretty exhausting.
I haven't a clue how this got changed. I tried goofing around with
shift, ctrl, etc. and I wasn't even able to get an "Open With" option on
the context menu. The only way I found to re-associate the file was:
Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Default Programs > Set
Associations
Double click .bat
Click Browse
Browse to C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe
Click Open
Select "Virtual Command Shell 9014006604090000"
Click OK
So I doubt I did it manually. As far as what program made that
modification or what steps I went through to get Windows to give me the
option to re-associate a batch file, I don't know.
Now, once the association is set, it's impossible to remove without
editing the registry.
Thanks for spurring me on to find the source of the problem!

For kicks, here are a few links where people set the association
manually and were advised to delete the .bat\UserChoice key:
