Sounds that that installer has grabbed a lot of file extensions and made them open in a media player.

You can try to uninstall this codec pack to see if that reverts those associations to their previous action. Otherwise you can try to right-click a file with a changed association and use open with to change the current association to the previous program that handled it.

You may need help from a Windows forum to remove the association in the registry between EXE files and the player. For example:
