Have you reinstalled the software that handles these file types? If you did a repair installation, then the registry is likely lacking entries for what may be orphan software that became orphaned by the repair process.

I would uninstall and reinstall the software that handles these if it shows them installed. If they are missing from the installed software listing buy yet they are there in Program Files etc, then they are orphaned and a reinstall will either stomp on top of the last install or it will detect the last install and allow importing of the last config for the fixed installation.
