• Cannot open .exe files, cannot open any programs

  My computer worked fine until last night. Now, every time that I click on a shortcut, or try to open any program, I get this error: this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action.

Check your computer's system information to see if you need a x 86 (32 bit) or x 64 (64-bit) version of the program and then contact the software publisher.

  I got this computer for 2 years, with the same programs on it (of course they have been updated since then) and never had a problem. I can't even run a virus scan or anything to know if I have a. What is going on?

• Open administrator cannot open any programs unless you run as administrator.

  .. .UAC not OPEN cannot open unless you run as administrator programs.  IE9 IS NOT ONLY IS NOT OPEN

  Hi ionpetcu,

  ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  ·         You get the error message?

  Follow these methods.

  Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software .

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 2: Disable user account control and check.

  Enable or disable the User Account Control

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-user-account-control-on-or-off

  Note: User Account Control (UAC) can help you to prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. It works by asking permission when a task requires administrative rights, such as installing software or changing settings affecting other users.

  Method 3: If the problem persists, create a new administrator user account.

  Create a user account

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/create-a-user-account

  If the problem is resolved in a new user account, and then follow the article on how to fix a corrupted user account.

  I suggest you try the steps from the following link:

  When you run an .exe on a Windows Vista-based or Windows 7 computer file, the file may start another program
