Question Wordpad Problem

Every time I save a wordpad document, then go to open that doc it opens with gobbledegook

Same when receiving an e-mail attachment, which can only be opened with Wordpad.

I think this is resolved. Right click and open with. Open with Word and all is fine and dandy. Open with Wordpad and it's all GCHQ
