Camera Raw has Hijacked Some File Types

Normally I edit WEBP files in Windows 11 by right-clicking file, and selecting Open With > Photoshop 2026. I’ve been doing this for quite some time. Today (3/3/2026) I performed the same operation, and the file opened in Camera Raw. I do not use Camera Raw, and don’t want to learn how to use it at this time. As an Adobe user for 10+ years, I’ve resisted using Camera Raw, and I certainly don’t want it forced on me. If it had no function within Photoshop, I’d uninstall it.

 

I would like to find out how to undo the WEBP and TIF formats being hijacked by Camera Raw, and any others I may find that have been hijacked.
