In windows, 

(1) Right click a file and select "Open with... [netbeans]".

NetBeans will open, but the file won't open in the source editor.

You must repeat the first step.

It is possible to specify a file to open if you start NetBeans from the command line.

e.g. C:\Program Files\NetBeans 7.0\bin>netbeans --open x:\path\to\File.java

You can configure file context menu to contain a shortcut action for it, see:
http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqCliOpen

I think it (or something similar) could be configured during installation. Reassigning to Installer.
