Delete JetBrains File Associations on Windows

I used to have 4 JetBrains IDEs: IntelliJ, GoLand, PyCharm, and CLion. However I deleted them because they were npt very light weight and I discovered the greatness of Neovim.

However, whenever I open my file explorer and open a folder with some code, I would see the file name (i.e. main.go) and under the File Type section, it would say JetBrains (IDE) File.

For example;

File Name --------------- File Type

main.go   --------------- JetBrains GoLand File

Also, when I right-click the file, it still shows the "Open With (a JetBrains IDE)" despite them being deleted.

Those two problems are occurring with all 4 JetBrains IDEs I used to have (PyCharm, CLion, GoLand, IntelliJ)

My end goal:

  • When right clicking a file, I don't want the option to open it in a JetBrains IDE (because the IDEs are deleted)

  • .go / .java / .py (etc) files shouldn't say JetBrains (IDE name) under the File Type section
