I'm afraid there's no easy way to revert it. I may get to invest the time for 3.6's launcher[1] to make it available in Default Programs, but I've always struggled to get that to work properly.

Explorer should always use the per-user command if it's there, and it's basically the responsibility of users to not change it if they don't want it to change.

[1] The launcher owns the shortcut, not the core Python installation - the separation is only important to users in that if you don't include the launcher you don't get the association, and if you install the launcher for all users then the shortcut is for all users.

(Also cleared the Versions field, since Python 3.4 creates the correct association too. Preventing user customization on a user's machine is not something we're going to get into, but that's the only way to "solve" this problem.)

versions:  -Python 3.4
