  How to open the downloaded file Lightroom_6 LS11?

  He asked what program to use to open it.

  Just to get back to you. It was an expensive trip but I thought about it and it is actually very simple. For some reason, the ".exe" was omitted from the file. When I renamed the file with the name extension, he began the launch. Incredible. In any case, thank you for taking the time to help me.

  You can make the default program using set Associations.
  1. open default programs by clicking the Start button, click default programs.
  2. click on associate a type of file or Protocol with a program.
  3. click on the file type or protocol that you want the program to act as the default value. (In this case it will be for .exe files).
  4. click on the change agenda.
  5. click on the program that you want to use by default for the selected file type, or click the arrow next to other programs to show other programs.
  6. (if you don't see other programs or your program is not listed, click Browse to find the program you want to use, and then click Open. If no other programs are installed that are able to open the type of file or Protocol, your choice will be limited.)
  7. click on OK.

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  .lnk are shortcut files (shortcuts are usually what you have on your desktop and the start menu).  If inadvertently, you tried to right click on a shortcut and choose "open with...". ", you can breaking their properties.

  Because the associations are complex and the registry can be dangerous, the best way to solve your problem is to use the system restore to fix system associations when returning parameters at the same time that they last worked properly.  Here's how:

  1 - Hold down the Windows key and type R to open the Run dialog box.

  2 - paste in this command: %systemroot%\system32\rstrui.exe

  3 - follow the instructions to restore your system at a time before, it was working fine.

• How to stop the computer to ask what program to use when you try to run a file ".exe"?

  Whenever I select a program runs it prompts me to choose what program should I use to run the program.  He acts like he can not find the "ini" file which allows to go along with the program.  The "ini" file usually defines the settings for the program works.  It sets up the lanes for the necessary files can be found.  How my computer is, he cannot understand the program that wants to be run because the definitions are not defined.  What can I do to fix this broken configuration? All this began after I got rid of a bunch of malicious programs.

  It seems that your .exe file associations have been lost.  To restore file associations, perform the procedure in the following site specific associations to exe.  Make sure to read the Special Summit as note specifically relates to lost .exe associations:

• After the removal of a virus, shortcuts are now asking what program to open it with Vista

  I have kaspersky anti virus and it has detected a virus, deleted and I thought everything was fine, but when I click on something like the calculator, Notepad, firefox, whatever it is, it asks me to choose what program I want to open it instead of open it automatically. This isn't a big deal, but it is very irritating and annoying. Other profiles on my computer seem to be. The account is not an administrator account, but has information, I want to keep. Any advice would be appreciated. I ran several other spyware and antivirus scans and all my computer ratio is not affected. Thanks again

• When I try to open a program, a box appears asking what program I want to use to open the file. Even when I try to open Internet Explorer.Any idea that would entail, and how to fix it?

  If I click with the right button on a program, and then click Run as and uncheck the protect my computer box that open programs very well.

  Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

  If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

  You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

  Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  I hope this helps. Good luck.

• In Vista, all files lost association, constantly asked what program to open a file with

  First of all, whenever I try to open certain files, such as Internet Explorer, paint, or whatever it is, I get the "choose the program you want to use to open this file", and it has not happened before. Along with this, the little thing bar in the lower right corner of the screen (which includes the Volume, time and everything) never ends load when I turn on the computer. I think I have a virus and spin the Virus Scan right now (AntiVir, to be precise, which I think will remove whatever it is detected). Two days ago pop-ups randomly came quite often, even when I'm not all Internet Windows running. It arrived yesterday and for the most part, everything was fine, but today is that occur at startup problems mentioned at the beginning of this post. I tried to search for solutions to this online, and some Web sites suggested to open the Task Manager and try to fix something here. But unfortunately, I can't even open the Task Manager. CTRL Alt Del does nothing, and when I right click on the taskbar, Task Manager option is grayed out. Any immediate response will be greatly appreciated, and if there is any other information I can provide, let me know.

  * original title - Hey everyone, I have some problems with my computer and I don't know how to fix them *.

  OK, so it seems I did. I think I deleted everything that I needed to and restarted my computer. It seems that everything works fine however.

I'll be restart my computer later to see if still appears once, but overall, everything is fine.

  Thank you very much for your support and help guys
