  I have not yet created disk backup and am not even sure I could run the program.

• I got rid of the Vista Security virus, now I can't open any .exe file and DOS commands do not the case.

  I used a program to blow this stupid fake virus Vista Security that's happened here. Subsequently, I can't open any .exe files. If I open a file saved in this format (for example, a Microsoft Word file recorded) will be open, but not all of the original programs themselves. I can't do a system restore because it's a .exe. The DOS commands, including the .com-style those don't work either! Help please!

  5. without it, developing the main folder .exe , right-click (default) right and the change . Change the value in exefile data

  6. in the same HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT , find the folder items exefile and click right (default) and the change . Change the value data to "% 1" % *

• Regedit, nor any .exe file will open

  I got the xp antivirus pro 2010 virus earlier today. I went through regedit and delete every registry entry associated with him... not the best move. Now im certain antivirus xp pro 2010 is totally removed from my computer. But now, I can not run any .exe, .reg file file, or Open regedit...

  any help?

  It's extremely likely that your computer is clean and who knows what you deleted in the registry. The most practical thing and time-effective to do would be to backup your data and do a clean install of Windows. If you don't want to do that, then either mail to one of the following specialized forums take your computer to a qualified local professional GOLD. This is not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

• Running a .exe file that is created from the Captivate project

  Hello

  I am using Captivate 4. When I create a .exe of my captivate project file and run it to say slide 3, the next time I open the .exe - it connects the Traghetti where I left off (slide 3 in this case).

  Is there a way to make the project start from the beginning, whenever I run the .exe file?

• Severe a failure: all of a sudden all desktop-ICONS changed to "pdf-Icons", reports: "Adobe reader can´t open file xyz.exe '. I can't open any exe file!

  27.08.2015, 15:03

  Hi specialists and friends, please help me: after recommended today ' session-Adobe UPDATE JAVA brought 'JAVA 8 update successful 60': but: a serious fault occurs:

  all desktop icons after update and reboot are changed in pdf-Icons, programs behind the icons aren't more to start, clicking an icon is the report: 'Adobe reader cannot open the file xyz.exe '.

  Even in windows - start "Windows/start / all programs": all programs with ".exe" - mainfile changed their icon of adobes-player-icon and should not start, same report.

  My system is: Win 7 Pro SP1, my system has been running perfect until Adobe´s recommendation to update Java.  The procedure of update-Java-auto: apparently the same as several before.

  What went wrong? What should do now? How and where I fix the connection appearently wrong of Adobe Reader with computers exe files?

  My todays burning problem is, I have to use this computer today important obligations related to dates, especially my statement of tax, otherwise I have to pay the drastic punishment.

  What I ve learned today still and forever: never touch a running system! More than ever, with a recommendation to update to Adobe! I m so diappointed at Adobe!

  Please specialists and friends, maybe you can help me with a solution!  Thank´s in advance, Peter

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem all right, people, it's really weird.  Just surfing the net and a few page popped up a window, Windows defender, either real or double window that seemed to be some kind of virus scan running and find all kinds of infections.  Search on my drive for files of virus claimed, however, nothing found.  Zone alarm has warned that a program named av.exe was trying to access various resources, which I refused him permission to do.  I closed the browser and activate zonealarm internet lock.  Now, by clicking on any desktop icon rather began the av.exe program, same as before.  I used the Task Manager to end.  Finally, I found the file av.exe, a hidden file in the documents and settings/Peter/application data / directory and deleted.  So now, either by clicking on any application, destop, or the menu, including the Panel, appears a window wondering what program I want to use to open the file, or a warning that no file association is defined for the file.  Linking screen for the Windows Explorer file reports assoiations appropriate for all files, but does not list the exe or com all file extensions.  Attempt to add them (abandoned) presented a screen that windows already knew they were applications.  So now I'm at a loss.  This little beastie hurt not only managed to get by zone alarms various filters and screens, but itself installed and screwed with stuff.  I can't start applications normally.  To right click and use "start" from the pull down.  And some processes that are expected to be called by other programs to run into the same problem, so do not work.  I ran a system restore (had to do it from safe mode to make it work) for a few days, before this problem, but it doesn't fix it.  Nor, do one of the registry scanners I ran to try to find errors.  found a bunch, but the problem remains.
  • I'm puzzled.  What should do?   How can I reset windows to know that an exe file "opening" means to run the program?    Oh, and at this point, restart now does not start most of the things that are supposed to start on a startup, zone alarm, mouse drivers, etc..  Even the appearance of the taskbar has changed its background color blue back...

  Hello

  Write to you all today because I recently had a virus on my second computer that is running Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit edition and after removing Vista Anti Malware 2010, am unable to run .exe files. Initially, Avast Anti Virus caught the ave.exe file and removed from my system to the program had already himself installed and launched several times. I manually deleted some reg keys that it added to my registry and now I have an error after trying to launch any program file or .exe. I might be accidentally deleted a key "reg" I needed.
