Please, in the future, remove all the verbiage above when you ask for a
issue. It has nothing to do with your question. And ask your
questions in the body of the message, not in the title. The title
should be used only for a brief description of what is the question
everything.
You say 'impossible to open certain emails', but makes the rest of your title
It sounds like you can open the e-mail message, but you cannot open
the accessories that come with them. Is this correct?
If that's right, read the following:
To open a file (if get you it as an attachment or any other)
by the way), you must have an appropriate program installed for him (be it
the program that created the file or a compatible program). So if you open attachments depends on what kind of files (the
extension, the characters after the dot at the end of the file name)
attachments are.
If you get the files .doc or .docx, these were created by Microsoft Word
(or a compatible program) and to open them, you need Word, or
compatible program. Microsoft Office Home and Student includes Word.
You can also use OpenOffice (free software that is largely compatible
with Microsoft Office), WordPerfect, etc. Or you can download and
Install the free Microsoft Word Viewer
http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=3657ce88-7cfa-457a-9aec-f4f827f20cac&displaylang=en
or http://tinyurl.com/2w3s6z the viewer will allow you to read existing
files, but not create or modify them.
To open .pdf files, you need a viewer pdf and Microsoft Office Home
and student will not help you. The standard pdf viewer than most people
the use is Adobe Reader, and you can download free of charge
http://get.Adobe.com/reader/
It is more likely that you don't have a proper file installed
that you don't have the correct association, but if a
an appropriate program is installed, just right click on any file .doc
and choose open with. Highlight and select Word, select the check box
"Always use this program...". "and click OK. It should work fine
from then on it.
The above paragraph is how do to the files .doc and Word, but for
other types of files, replace .doc with the extension of the file type and
Word with the appropriate program.
If you try in vain to open other types of attachments,
Please tell us what types of files they are.

I have media library but do not know how to open files that is downloaded.
Media Center does not open PDF files and PDF files have nothing to do with playback of music or videos. Somehow, downloads do not create the appropriate file types. Where are you these downloads? Can you give me a website? You want to download (images, videos, music, what)? What version of Media Center do you use? What version of Vista are you using? How do you download files and if you use a browser, which is the name and version of the browser?

Hi all
Help needed please.
HP dx2250 microtower, running Windows Vista Home Basic Edition, recently attacked by Vista Antispyware 2010. Norton 360 V3 dealt with rather late the virus, but the fall of the remains.
I am unable to open any .exe file (program) on the desktop, start menu, or through the browser. I can access the programs in opening a data file, for example, double-click a .doc file opens MS Word, etc.
The error message "this file has no program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the control panel to define the Associations. "
I tried an automated solution that is available via the forums (exefix_cu.reg) and also a manual suggestion to change the registry, also available through the forum.
I also splashed by and purchased Regcure, who seems to have done no difference despite who claims to have removed 1500 odd errors. So I'll be request the refund on that one.
I scanned the forums and found a large number of similar problems, but not one that is as complete as this.
Any help much appreciated

Hi Randy,
Welcome to the Windows Vista answers Forum!
I have a few questions about your concerns:
(a) game in which you try to read?
(b) is this the case with all games or any game in particular?
(c) you are trying to play the games that are built with Window Vista?
(d) what version of Window Vista do you use?
You can also try the suite of measures to define the association:
1. open the control panel. (Classic view)
2 click the default programs icon.
3 click on the link associated with a file type or Protocol with a program . (See screenshot below)
4 click the extension file type to change which program .exe association opens. (See screenshot below)
NOTE: It may take a while to load up5 click on change program button.
6 if the list, select the program that you want to be associated with (opens) the file extension. (See screenshot below)
(A) check the always use the selected program to open this type of program , and then click OK.
7 if the program is not listed, then click the Browse button and navigate to the .exe of the program you want to default to open the file extension.
(a) select the program.
(b) click on the Open button
(C) check the always use the selected program to open this type of program and click OK to apply.
This should solve your problem.
Hope this information is useful.

Cannot open certain e-mail error message c00d1199
accidentally slipped extension .vob dvd to wmp icon. This prevents me from opening certain emails. Thanks for any help that you could provide
Hello- E-mail are what customer you referring?
- Are you facing problems in opening emails?
I recommend you perform the clean boot.
Configuration of your system in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.
See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: after a repair, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.Reply back with more information.See also: -

I can't open my c or d ' training or any other when I click it
Hello
· Remember to make changes to the system?
This happens because autorun.vbs is created by a virus or Trojan horse. The virus normally loads the file autorun.inf in the root of the folder all the hard drive or USB key and then run the autorun.bat file which contains script to apply and merge autorun.reg into the registry, with possible change in the following registry key to ensure that the virus is loaded at system startup:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
USERINIT = Userinit.exe, autorun.exe
Finally, autorun.bat will call wscript.exe to run autorun.vbs.
When the antivirus software or security detected the file autorun.vbs as infected, the file will be deleted or deleted or quarantined.
I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below and check if the problem is resolved.
Method 1:
I suggest running the fix which is present in the article below and check if the problem is resolved.
When you run an .exe on a Windows Vista-based or Windows 7 computer file, the file may start another program
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950505
If it does not help follow method 2
Method 2:
a. run the Task Manager (Ctrl-Alt-Del or right click on the taskbar)
b. stop wscript.exe process if available by selecting the name of the process, and then click on end process.
c. then terminate explorer.exe process.
d. in the Task Manager, click on file-> new task (run?).
e. type cmd in the box text open, and then click OK.
f. type the following command one by one, and then press the Enter key:
g. del c:\autorun.*/f/s/q/a
h. del d:\autorun.*/f/s/q/a
i. del e:\autorun.*/f/s/q/a
Where c, d, e each representative the drive letters on Windows System. If there are several disks or partitions available, continue to command by changing on the other drive letter. Note that you must also clean files autorun from USB flash drive or an external portable hard drive as the hard drive may also be infected.
If this does not help, follow the method 3.
Method 3:
a. click on start and click on run
b. type regsvr32 /i shell32.dll
c. Press ok
d. you will see a message DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in the successful shell32.dll file
