Using your file browser, find one of the files, and right click on it. Select Properties. Under General press the Open With button.

That should happen automatically if you have Firefox set in Windows 7 to open that file type for viewing. Sorry, I never bothered to set that up in Windows 7, as usually I don't open files from the file system directly, I got in the habit years ago of doing it within the program that I want to open them in. So I can't describe how that works in Windows.


I use File > Open File... to open files like that in Firefox. With the Menu Bar hidden, the Alt key will show the Menu Bar, then hit F to open the File menu, than hit O to open the file Open File window explorer.
