Quartus II 12.1 Text Editor Won't Open. (Always opens Notepad++, using old setting?)

I've just installed Quartus 12.1 and am trying to open the default text editor however Notepad++ always opens (which is the text editor I used in previous versions of Quartus). Now for whatever reason it always opens it no matter what settings I have chosen in Tools->Options->Preferred Text Editor. Currently I have "Quartus II Text Editor" selected in Quartus but it always opens Notepad++. 

 

Is there a file somewhere on my system I can manually edit?

It appears I needed to delete a "quartus_web_rules_file" and a quartus2.qreg file under my home directory in Win7. Looks like it was using old information out of those.  

 

I guess I'll find out eventually if I broke something else by doing this, but at least now the text editor option is working :p
