Try the following, however, if .htm and .html are already assigned in the registry, making arbitrary changes may break existing functionality. To avoid this, I would suggest working with the registry directly - see [alanphipps.com...] this should allow to to make additions to existing settings rather than break existing settings.

Also, I don't use notepad++ so the /p switch may not work and I am not certain that .ICO files can be used to specify an icon in this way.
