Cannot change individual file Associations

I can't change individual file associations. The most I can do is assign an application given to 'all' the files it can open or just to 'some' of the files it can open. (And someone else chose it as 'some' is.)

I'll give an example:

I installed QuickTime Player. When I look through the QuickTime Player file associations, I see that one of the formats that QuickTime is configurΘ for dΘmarrer is DV. I don't want QuickTime to open the DV files. I have another request for this. However, I can't remove the check mark from the DV file association. In fact, I can't remove all checkmarks of the files that QuickTime is set to open.
So my question is: How can I change the file to a unique and specific file type association?

    1. the request does not appear in the list of programs to associate even if it has an .exe file extension

    2. when I click on the .xpa file that I want to associate with the application, it is to be associated with a Windows Media file

    Don't know what to do.

  • Cannot cancel the file associations in Windows 7 Lite

    I changed my file associations so that the paint (which was used to open the fair rle, wmf and emf files), by selecting all.  It worked, and paint opens now jpg, gif, etc.  I noticed that I was not able to select the types individually - only the select all check box was available.

    However, now I want to change the settings in the original three file types.  I can't always uncheck the file types, I just chose, OR three originally.  Viewer Photo of Microsoft still has the associations in that dissociating the, they are not associated.

    Y at - it a fix for this bug?  I'm up-to-date with my Windows updates.

    Hey Jack,

    Exactly how you try to change the file association?

    You should be able to individually control panel.

    a. Click Start and type default programs.

    b. click default programs.

    c. click on associate a file type with a program.

    d. double-click .wmf and choose paint from the list of programs.

    e. Repeat for other types of files.

    This should be it.

  • I'm unable to change default file associations. The association always returns to what it was.

    I am running Windows 7 64 bit.  I can't change the file associations default for .exe and .ini files (I have not tried the other file extensions).  I tried to make the change by choosing "open with", select the desired program and checking the 'always use the selected program to open this type of file.  I also tried with the option "Default Programs/Set Associations" in the control panel.  No matter what I do, the association returns to what it was before (the Notepad in the case of .txt and .ini files)
    Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Thanks for your suggestion.  I tried Microsoft FixIt, but that did not help.  Then I remembered that I had installed and uninstalled a trial version of UltraEdit v. 18 on my computer.  This program partners with a variety of file types.  I reinstalled the trial version, making sure that it has been configured to not to associate any type of file and then uninstalled again.  Now everything works fine.

  • How can I change the file association in Windows XP

    All my WORD documents and such are automatically saved in a WORDPAD document, how can I stop that?

    While the file associations in windows do not address how a file should be opened,

    It does not address how a file should be saved.

    the method of saving in a program is controlled by this program.

    Therefore, if you use word 2003, then you must change to save documents rtf to word documents.

    try clicking on Word Tools Menu then Options file.

    then under the tab backup, do not forget to select the right format for saving your documents, IE Word documents (* .docs).

    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.

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

  • Cannot change the host associations groups

    Hello:

    I'll put up a cluster with two nodes with two Dell servers and a MD3200 with two controllers. Each server has two SAS HBA, each one associated with each of the SAN controllers for redundancy.

    I stopped with a problem stupid aparently that not let me complete the Setup, and I need urgently finish it.

    The problem is that the 1 server is automatically asigned to the default group, and I tried to do a second group specifically for the cluster. I manually assign Server 2 to this group, but not way to assing server 1 also, so I'm trying to desassign server host cluster group 2, to assign it to the default group, but I can't find how. Now I have 1 server bound to the default host group and Server 2 in the clsuter group. All the options to manage, change or assign specific hosts or groups are disabled, and I can't configure the cluster.

    I think the problem is that access virtual disk (automatically generated by the software) is attributed to groups of two hosts, so I can't delete the second cluster group, if both servers are assigned, and the software doesn't let me do anything.

    Management software version is 10.84.G6.44 (latest version) and host is Windows Server 2012.

    Need urgent help. Thanks in advance.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    See "extension corrupted files:

    If you see disabled extensions, is not compatible, in "tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button, on the left side of the search bar (or click on the"Find updates"button in older versions of Firefox) to check if there is an available update compatibility.
