All my files were attached .lnk... cannot open anything it either... always asking where to save the file and does not always work... cannot open anything in the Panel

See the "the (shortcut) LNK file Association fix" here: http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm don't forget to read the instructions at the top of the page.

You also need the "EXE File Association fix" on the same page.

Be sure to check for malware, once the exe files work.  Use MalwareBytes Anti-Malware and SUPERAntiSpyware.

  • Firefox 20.0.1 - option 'Always ask where to save the files' not 'Downloads' folder not going.

    Firefox 20.0.1 on WinXP SP3.

    Previously, when I always selected "ask where to save files" Firefox would start from the default download folder - it I had shortcuts to locations which usually to record on.

    Now Firefox insists on starting from the root of C: - and I don't know how to change this behavior.

    I would like it to start from the default download folder it used to. This is the place where I got these shortcuts and I do NOT wish to place these shortcuts to the root of C:.

    go to Subject: config find (or copy/paste form here) browser.download.folderList right-click on it, select modify and change the value to 2. Release of firefox, restart it and check again.

    Thank you

  • All of my files have been converted to open it with Windows Media Player. How can I change this back to normal?

    Hello.

    I don't know what I clicked at all initially, but now, most of my programs have been converted to open it with Windows Media Player, so that they cannot work.

    Even when I click on the system restore (to undo changes I've done previously), Windows Media Player opens and there will be a window that says that you can not read this .exe file.

    I'm stuck and I don't know how else to solve this problem. Help, please!

    Hello

    -Did you change your computer, after which the question began?

    I would recommend that you follow these steps and check to see if they help.

    Step 1:

    Change the program that is associated with the extensions of file name recognized so that Windows XP opens all files with this extension in the new partner program.

    Step 2:

  • Vision Builder HAVE: (Hex 0xFFFA960C) cannot open the record of inspection.

    I HAV built an inspection in the generator of vision for automated inspection (the code, the image and inspection is provided in the attachment)
    but my program cannot open the inspection is to launch an error: error-354804 occurred in VBAI Interface - open Inspection.vi.

    I am using the NI 1742 smart camera and run the program on the remote target

    I don't get the reason for this error.

    If smbdy can solve... Please...

    I think the problem is that the path you specify is invalid for a goal of RT. On the RT, the 'path' should just be the name of the inspection. If you look at help for the VI open Inspection, it says to use the get target Inpections VI to see what paths for all controls are... sometimes the path is a name of numbers subsequent, though it may not be what you think.

    Hope this helps,

  • 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.

  • In 'my computer' pdf files have suddenly refusing to open in adobe reader 8 and 10. OS is XP sp2. the file appears for a split second and disappears. What needs to be done?

    My PC is running windows xp, sp2. Previously, I copied several PDF files on the net and stored in my documents and periodically SURFs on the pages. All of a sudden, the appearance of the Office has migrated to the default settings, but they have been reset. Regarding pdf files that have been copied through adobe reader 8.2 for my ducuments they refuse to open, even after the upgrade to version 10.0.1(current de lecteur) the file is displayed for a split second and disappears. Clean your PC with Avast does not indicate something wrong. Went to RUN regedit .exe and checked in all the boxes of the machines:-key-local etc. to permit and permission, but they were of no use. How to remedy this. ? Can I format Adobe and reloaded via net? Please give me a solution.

    Took a while to get here. Try using the PDF reader.
     
     
    If the files try to open it with Adobe, create a file association.
     
    Right-click on the file.
    Select: Open with on the shortcut menu.
    Click: Choose [default] program.
    Letter: Foxit Reader.
    Check: Always use the selected program to open this type of file.
    Click OK.

    Is it on two different computers or on the same computer? If it is two different machines, it is possible that your region on your operating system settings are defined differently from the default language to use for non-unicode programs? If so, try setting the TestStand 2014 machine to match the settings of the machine of TestStand 2013. Also, make sure that the Option on the location tab has the same settings to "Recognize multibyte characters" on both machines.

  • support for files with extension .max-cannot open files

    I got a HP with Windows 98 computer.  When I got a newer computer, I downloaded the scanned files of visoiaire scanner on the new computer with windows XP.  Files are associated with the program file extension. MAX.  I'm unable to open files with windows XP.  I'm technically incompentent.  Y at - it a to change extension of files or open with Windows XP?  detailed instructions will be appreciated.

    That's what Filext.com about MAX:

    MAX file type is primarily associated with "PaperPort" of ScanSoft Inc. file: PPPAGEVW. EXE. Also captured by Visioneer Page view. If you have been sent a photo of a person in this format, try using the Viewer. If this does not work for you ask them to send the image in a format, you can display.

    This means that the Visionaire scanner connected to your old Win98 computer has been configured to save the files analyzed in this proprietary format.  The Viewer for this format - pppagevw.exe - no doubt has been installed on the Win98 computer, when the scanner was installed.

    Unfortunately, your new computer is that Viewer, you need to get here (go to the bottom of the page): http://support.visioneer.com/products/Tools/Utilities_2000_XP.asp
