That's a good one. Windows used to have a tool that would show you the list of associations and there might well be one that would suit. But... what "file type" shows up in Windows explorer? I guess it lists the type as a Chrome HTML doc? I suppose this stuff is stored in the registry. You might be able to change the file icon to a PDF file. Hmm... I can't find a way to do that through the file properties. I guess they've taken that out too!
