All file associations went on my computer,

I can't open anything except Internet Explorer on the computer. Even System Restore does not open, is there a way to restore the computer and fix file associations?

You can open a normal file as search or my documents? If you can, go to tools, options, folders and file types. Who will appear the list of types of files on your computer. Check if you see here. Also, run regedit and check if you see file extension records in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. If they are actually missing, then you will need your windows CD-ROM.

Equip your windows cd and restart your computer. on the first screen that you see or black screen, either go into your BIOS Setup to boot from the cd or continue to press F12 (if enabled) to enter your computers start menu and select to boot to the CD drive. Once you have selected you need to wait for windows to load all it's files and when they finish, choose to continue with the windows installation, when the installation program asks you to choose where you want to install it will say first check for installed versions of windows, and then it will ask you if you want to repair your windows installation and then press the right key to fix, I think it's R.

Good luck with that!

  • Reader Adobe XI changes all file associations in Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

    Yesterday, my desktop computer changes all files on the computer of Adobe associations. Of course, this made my computer useless. After consultation with Microsoft technical support. We have uninstalled (thank goodnes I had another user profile) Adobe and all returned to normal. Technical support is a malware and virus scan and found nothing.

    This morning I went to install Adobe again and it's the same thing. I can't run Adobe on my machine. It worked fine until yesterday.

    What should do? I need Adobe like everything else does.

    You talk about this problem?

  • On my desk, all file associations have changed & all extensions have become ".lnk" instead of ".exe". So I can't run any program without going through 'my computer '.

    When the problem persisted for 3-4 days, I thought to check the properties of the file "", & that's when I learned that even though she describes the file type as 'application', she has a ".lnk" extension I deleted the shortcut & set it to new, but who has not resolve it. I ran "anti-virus", & he found.
    Whenever I click any shortcut on the desktop, it asks me what program should be used to open it. Yesterday, I clicked on 'Internet Explorer' & changed the option "open with...". "for IE. By mistake, I uncheck the box 'always apply for this type of files', at the bottom of this window. So now, each item on the desk trying to open with IE.
    All I want to do is retrieve these files & extensions associations. How can this be achieved? Any help? Apart from this, the laptop works well as before.

    Thanks in advance.
    Mitch.

    Hello

    . INK files are usually created on a Tablet PC

    . LNK files are shortcuts

    Have you done something that their renamed? By the program files you mean DATA or the actual programs
    What should you run? Data files can be renamed to the correct extensions.

  • Software PlayItAll removes all file associations

    I used to add it and remove software control panel to remove this software.  Once it is removed the whole system is unusable.  It's as if each file is lost he asks which is related to.  Is any way to remove this software from my system with corrupt them all of the computer?

    As much as to remove it if you don't have a restore point practice to go back, you can try to remove the sub program directory "Program Files", then use regedit and search for "playitall", then delete all instances that appears.

  • Select / download all the files associated with a model?

    Is there an easy way to select all the files that are associated with a particular model? It's fine that DW allows me to update all the files locally, but I am really surprised that there is no way (that I found) to select all the files that are associated with a model. In my case, I have a .html about 50 files stored in a folder and only 20 of them associated with a specific model. When I change the template (and therefor all files associated), I currently have to choose through my list of 50 files for 20 files I want to download. I was wondering if there is an easier way to do this in DW?

    Thank you all. :)

    Right-click on your root folder and select 'synchronize' DW will search
    through all your files the remote, and then download one that have been

    It will first give you a dialog box to all files that it believes need download
    and you can check whether you want to or not. You can also check the "Delete".

  • WLM file associations associations of system

    I am running Win XP and Office WLM. I have Office 2003 is installed and all file associations are defined to use Office 2003. If I open a .doc from a folder, it opens in Word 2003 without problem.

    I installed a trial of Office 2010, to try it. This has obviously changed all my file associations, but I changed them back because I didn't want to use Office 2010 by default (it's so slow to start!).
    However, if I open a WLM desktop accessory, it always use Office 2010 to open the file. Why? Why it does not use the default file association?
    I know that I can save an attachment on my HARD drive and open from there (and it uses Word 2003 correctly), or I could uninstall Office 2010 trial and he will return to Office 2003 (I hope!), but I'd rather have WLM use default file associations.
    Is there a way I can force WLM to use Word 2003 high of the page open .doc files?

  • Convert all files at once

    I'm new to the creative cloud, but not of Adobe Indesign.  Normally when I would update to a software suite, all files associated with a particular program would be automatically associated with the newly loaded software version.  I noticed that all of my "Indesign" files always have the CS4 icon, when I open a file and print, I wonder if I want to save it in a file IDCC.  Then, he makes me choose where to place the file and asks me if I want to get rid of the old file and keep both versions.  I understand that I could store files on my drive hard or in my account of cloud.

    My question is, is there a way to automatically convert all Indesign CS4 files on IDCC files so I don't have to go through the manual process of putting the file newly converted in the right folder each and every time I open a file (for the first time in IDCC)?  I want to keep all my files on my local network for now and feel like I'm missing something simple thank you.

    Steve

    You would be actually well advised NOT to replace or remove older versions. It is not uncommon for the converted files (especially when the originals are many versions older than the current) to suddenly encounter a fatal error. Backup storage is very cheap compared to the cost of the reconstruction of a long document or complex from scratch.

  • File associations in Bridge

    I installed and activated Photoshop CS6 (64 - bit, Windows 7).  Associations of files in Bridge are all blown out, failed on either 'none' or IE Explorer.  When I try to open a file of the bridge, it opens in the Windows Live Photo Gallery, and a right-click returns no Photoshop as one of the choices.  This occurs with TIFF and JPEG files and Raw files.  It's never happened to me with CS4 or CS5 or CS6 beta I had been using (and uninstalled before installing the CS6).  Do I have to re - manually set all file associations?  How Bridge does not recognize the program a subroutine?

    Uninstall the previous version blocked upward from your registry.

    At this point, I uninstall it, and then download and run Adobe Script Cleaner.  Then reinstall.

    Don't need to install CS5.

    before considering a change/upgrade of the operating system, you can check if you can solve the problem by following the directions/procedure listed here: http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?showtopic=82696

    before you say it cannot be done, take note of doing things exactly as specified... in particular, I would like to highlight the following points of special 3 which are:

    (1) If you are unable to download MBAM directly on the infected computer, you should download on another computer and then transfer it (via key) to the infected machine.

    (2) given that .exe files does not work on your computer, you will need to Rename the mbam-setup installation file . exe:

    mbam-setup. com:

    (3) Similarly, after installation of the MMFA, you will need to Rename it to mbam. exe for mbam. com in order to run it.

    Keeping these 3 points in mind, go back and follow, step by step, the procedure in the above link.

  • CS5 does not all the associated files

    I have several sites in DW CS5.

    All of a sudden, the pages of sites do not display the associated files in the toolbar where they should be. The other site is showing them without problem.

    I checked all the settings and tried "Refresh related files." Nothing does then appear. On one or two pages, the associated .js show files, but not the .css files. In this case, by using the 'Show all files' in the section file related Options does nothing.

    Can anyone help? THX.

    OK... Thank you. So I took out the "/" before the path to the files related to make them relative and Yes, all of a sudden the associated files appeared in DW.

    However, I went and looked at the pages of my other site in DW with the associated files with absolute paths which have no problem appear. The directory of the page structure and its related files is the same. So, with one site, DW can find files associated with absolute and paths in the other site DW needs the relative path, but the absolute path worked a week or two ago.

    FOUND THE PROBLEM: In the server for the site information, the site that works very well has the full FTP path information entered. FTP full path information has been omitted in the other site that didn't work. As soon as I filled it, it worked fine.

    Thank you.

  • Adobe CS6 file associations are all stripped

    Used much CS6 association extensions open files;

    After installing CS6 of previous extensions .prproj .ai .psd, I found broken and Windows 7 (64 bit) asked what program to open it with.

    He would not give me the option of choosing what is obvious. So, I selected control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set Associations and select Photoshop cs6 .exe and it would not assign it.

    Even with several other files.

    Even files I did fresh photoshop CS6 (64) he used to select or provide the opportunity to open with the program, with what he did. I must first of all, open the program and select the file inside the program.

    Now Adobe Bridge CS6 shows all files with a Visual preview, but when I select the file says "windows cannot find 'C:\program file\adobe\adobe cs5 (64 bit) \photoshop.exe' make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."

    I somehow loosen the old extensions because cs5 is gone, but I can't seem to change the associations until some ghost of the residual cs5 registry still lives in my machine.

    I googled the problem and many people have this problem but no real miracle seem apparent or they are incredibly draconian as wipe the disk and reinstall windows.

    I see it already happened with some other updates on the forums that is cs4 cs5 years back.

    It's my upgrade in 6th and I gave adobe the thousands and thousands of dollars, and why is this problem not get sent when another summer to complain about years and still not a viable solution is given.

    This is a Registry fix for Win7 machines for the file association problem.

    This from TinusHDCA user:

    I installed Photoshop CS6, then found CS5 was always there. I thought, Hey, I don't have CS5, so I uninstalled CS5. then I discovered that Photoshop was no longer available in "Open with", when right clicking on an image...

    I went into the registry, HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command, and changed (by default) of "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit) \Photoshop.exe" '%1' to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit) \Photoshop.exe" '%1' (so changed CS5 to CS6) - and now I see "Adobe Photoshop CS6" in my list 'Open with' when right-clicking on an image...
