Visual Studio 2010 not opening CSS files

Recently I have had a problem where Visual Studio 2010 wouldn't open any CSS files. I can't say for sure if this started happening just after I installed SP1 as I don't tend to edit many CSS files.

The solution I found was to install the following extension.
Extension Manager -> Online Gallery
Search for: "Web Standards Update for Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 SP1"

This information I found on the social MSDN site here.
