Chief Architect Layout Files saving so that it thinks Sketchup is the default App

[MicheleInteriors]

A weird thing started happening out of the blue when we upgraded to X16.  When we create a layout and save it, the layout saves as a .layout however, the ICON next to the file name looks like a Sketchup symbol.  When we click on the file from File Manager, it launches Sketchup and not Chief Architect.  In order to open it, I have to right click on the file and select Open With, Select Enable All Applications then select Chief Architect X16 and then it will open.  I have NO idea why it's doing that or which setting to change.  Can anyone shed some light on this and help me correct that?  I've looked in the places I know of.
