There is no bug in MMW, problem is that system looses Associations. Win 10 changed all that all over again.
There is only two ways why MMW (I had same issue with SumatraPDF, Libre Office, XNView, FireFox and few others) can't associate file:
1. MMW is blocked to add itself to list of supported apps for the format and can't be associated (Right click -> Open with -> Choose Application -> Browse)
2. Some other App forces itself as Default app (Winamp Agent, Pot/Daum Player, sPlayer, WMP, iTunes, MusicBee, ....) when it is started or on windows start or on scheduled time
Each case is specific and in 99.99% fix is individual per PC not generic. All that would be easily handled if Windows like Android present list of playback apps and then allow to set and follow ALWAYS without way to override it without user interaction.
