Hey Rfhar,
You are getting a file not found. It means the file is no longer there.
This has therefore nothing to do with file association.
Delete the shortcut or re-initialize it with the correct path and/or right Click/Refresh the desktop.

PS:I love your avatar.

Can you right click on that file and take a screenshot of properties?
Also attempt to change the association.

The first one is on my desktop as I used the File Explorer Gallery to find the picture as I wanted a good picture of my wife's sister and husband both died years ago. After I found it, I have gone directly to where the picture is located.

After I click change, I get the same error message as shown in the beginning of this help request. That is I must open it with a browser.

I am so sorry; it is difficult to help without being able to see the problem first hand.

When did the problem start? What was done to the system in between? Have you rebooted recently?

Good luck.
