Solution 1:

Apps that can open a file by pointing to a file must have extensions that point to the app. There is not any way around this.

What you can do, what I do, is use Windows File Explorer to point the file, Right Click and then use the Open With selection. That will allow you to select an app like Notepad, UltraEdit or like app.
