That's it! From this point on, any time you want to edit a script/file/ANYTHING:

Open Windows Explorer --> Right Click the file --> click SendTo --> Notepad

And the file will be displayed in Notepad. Edit it and save it from here. This is also a very easy way to open files of an unknown type (i.e., files with no extension).
