Be aware:

As soon as an item is deleted from the file extension view, its resembling data row as well is deleted from the affected Installer database table Extension.

Once a ProgId or MIME object is related to the file extension, this relation is not automatically removed along when the file extension itself is removed. To remove a ProgId or MIME relation from a project, users have to directly edit the resembling Installer database table rows via the TABLES view of the Advanced mode.
