When you are unable to open EXE file and they open in notepad or other programs, then that means that the file association for the exe files are messed up, probably by a program or by mistakenly associating with another.
You might encounter a situation where you may not be able to open any .exe files or shortcut link files, i.e., EXE or LNK files. You might instead get a “Open with” dialog box, or it may open the file in another program. This happens if the file association of these file extensions may have got corrupted.
