Unreal engine file does not have an associated app

I get this when I try an open a project.

I already have unreal engine installed

Go to the “Default App” settings of Windows and scroll down to click on “Choose default apps by file type”.
Scroll down to .uproject and when the explorer window comes up browse to [Directory of Epic Games Launcher]\Engine\Binaries\Win64\ and select the UnrealVersionSelector.exe

When I click on it I get this:alt text

Then right click your .uproject and select “open with”, then browse to the .exe mentioned in my answer and mark “always open”

Invalid command line

Meanwhile I want to say, that you can start the engine first and then browse to the project to open it.
Maybe this already fixes the problem.
