Please elaborate. Notepad is not a nefarious application that randomly goes around hijacking files.

What type of file are you trying to open? What are you trying to open it with?

well i dont really know what the name of the rom of the file but its the normal paper thing that you cant really open it. It should be an 3ds file. and yes notepad is kinda hacking me of you ask me... im trying to get the file into citra to play pokemon alpha sapphire but nope. it doesnt support notepad rom.

that's because you set the file to open with notepad in your "file associations" settings, if you right click on the file in question and then choose properties then go to "open with" and then you choose the appropriate program to open the file... but you have to know what type of file it is that opens that particular file.

Well, there you go! Your application (Citra Edge) does not support the type of file you are trying to open. If this file used to open before, I would advise checking the file extension - or downloading the file from source again.

I still have no idea where Notepad has a role in this.

well i just wanted to delete notepad. if i download it agian notepad will do it agian because i tried to do the same things with other files that should have been normal but NOPE notepad doesnt change them...
the file extension is 3ds but how can a 3ds file can be notepad rom...

Those Citra Edge errors usually mean that something is wrong with the ROM files. I belive they need to be fully decrypted in order to work with the Citra Edge emulator. Check their support they should have something on it.
