Dear List, I actually figured it out--I think the registry is not modified appropriately upon installation of a new version. I found the following advice online:
"In regedit: Navigte to Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications and find your .exe name. Navigate under its name to shell>open>command. In the Default change its location to the actual location of the executable, hit okay and then try and reassociate the file type as you normally would." This worked for me.
