Post Which Program to use to open a file ?

Hopefully this will be a real easy one to answer for all the Experts out there.
How do you know which Program to use to open a downloaded file. I'll give you an example, I recently downloaded a file and put it one of my folders, when I double clicked on the file Icon (which was a sort of windows 'flag')a window popped up asking me which program I would like to use to open it, there then followed a long list of options which seemed to contain every program on my machine. I clicked on the first of the long list and the file opened, but it was complete rubbish like this: @>;{@~# $ @... you get the picture ? So my question is how do you know which program to use and if you choose the wrong one how do you reverse your choice. Thanks for any help.
