If you are using Gpg4win you can try out our Beta of gpg4win-3.0

(See: https://wiki.gnupg.org/Gpg4win/Testversions ) There we added set up of 
file extensions and handling of files by "double click" for Windows.

One problem was that the .pgp / .gpg / .asc extentions are pretty general. It 
could be Keys, signed data, detached signatures, etc.. so to bind them to an 
application the application would have to detect what a file is and handle it 
appropiately. This is done now by Kleopatra.
