Windows completely forgets what app created a document.

Are you absolutely sure that both files have the same extension? 

That's the only thing Windows is like;y to be taking any notice of.

The filename needs to end with ".wxyz" or whatever your extension is.

The further complication is that Windows explorer may be set to not show
file extensions for known file types. This could confuse you mightily.

If one file thinks it's one file type and another file thinks it's another,
then the must have different file extensions.
