Everytime I double click an application icon on my desktop, it does something else rather than opening the application. I was messing around the folder options, and I went to tools --> file types --> extensions -> Edit file type --> Actions
Now for all my file folders, the action "find" replaced what should be "explore" (I think)
So, my question is, how do I change it back to default?
(I tried creating a new action but it wont let me remove or change the old action)

More information would be helpful, especially what OS you're running, I'm assuming windows but what type?

Noticing that you had this exact question in the deviantart Forums under Windows XP I'm going to guess your OS is XP
Start -> Control Panel -> (if you don't have the advanced view up do that now) Folder options under each of the tabs there is a "restore defaults" button
Use those and then report back

Why don't you just back-up your data, and use a restore point.

Do you have system restore turned on?
If you do the quickest way in solving this would be simply using it to restore your windows settings to a time before you messed with that
