IntelliJ IDEA does not recognize properties file

Question

IntelliJ IDEA does not recognize my property file as seen in the picture below.

When I change the name to something other than "assetInformationFields" like "assetInformationField" it is recognized perfectly.

I already tried to invalidate caches and restart. IntelliJ IDEA version: 2017.1.5

and when you chang it back to "assetInformationFields" from "assetInformationField" does it unrecognized it? — OLIVER.KOO, Jul 10 '17 at 14:42
Can you right-click the file and select "mark as Properties"? — Daniel Figueroa, Jul 10 '17 at 14:50
How is this impacting you other than by displaying an uglier icon? — wi2ard, Jul 10 '17 at 14:50

@GabiM I have no syntax highlighting or any other property file features. — ammerzon, Jul 11 '17 at 05:47

Please see File | Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Editor | File Types, select the Text files and remove assetInformationFields.properties from there. Most likely it was added by accident from the file right click context menu.
