All packages opening in S4S

I was trying to open a recolor I was doing and didn't notice that my computer set all package files to open in Sims 4 Studio. I dont know how to undo that. Uninstalling S4S seemed to work but when I put it back all files just connected to it again. I'm not sure if its a computer thing or S4S thing. Does anyone know how I can undo that?

    This is a Windows thing for sure, a key gets stored in the registry so the computer "remembers" it. One quick way of dissociating it without needing to make registry edits is make a junk empty notepad file with a .bat or .exe extension, then right click the .package file, click "open with" and change the default app to the junk .bat/.exe file. Then delete that .bat/.exe file and the file association should reset.

    It's not going to cause any issues but you can easily reset it.
    For windows: Start/Windows key > type in Apps > Default apps tab > Reset (Reset to the Microsoft recommended defaults)

    Thank you. It worked. I know it wouldnt have caused any issues but I'm a creature of habit. :D
