Have you exit Inventor and rebooted your machine..
You can also use the following steps to re-register Autodesk Inventor with your operating system:
1. Exit Inventor if still running
2a. Win 8/8.1/10: Select the Windows start button and type CMD (but do not hit an enter)
2b. Win 7: Select the Windows start button and type CMD in the search field (but do not hit an enter)
3. When CMD or command prompt appears in the list, right mouse click and select run as admin
4. When the command prompt appears, navigate using dos commands to C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor <version>\Bin or where your Inventor.exe is located if you changed the default install location of Inventor.
In this example I'm navigated to my Inventor 2018 (exe) location.
6. Type Inventor.exe /install.
Wait a few mins and restart Inventor. At this time you will not see anything occurring. Don't panic. However if you launch Windows task manager you can watch the Inventor.exe process (and see when it ends).
Does that resolve the issue?

@Mark.Lancaster knows his stuff, but maybe also look at this:
In Windows Explorer, find an assembly file (.iam), right click and select Properties. Look at the Opens With and see if it says Inventor or not. If not, use the Change button and choose Inventor as the program that opens this file type. Or try what Mark said, he DOES know what he's doing. 😉
