Cannot open certain types of attachment
Trying to open some attachments email I get the following message: "this file is not a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options Control Panel"
I can't find anything on the Control Panel - folder Options to do this. Please tell us how to go to that topic.
If the PPS file is not an attachment, simply jump #1.
Create a file association.
1. download and save the attachment to the office.
2. right click on the saved file.
3. Select: Open with on the shortcut menu.
4. click on: choose [default] program.
5. Select:, (or PowerPoint Viewer, depending on what you have)
6. check: always use the selected program to open this type of file.
7. click on OK.
This should allow you to open these attachments directly from email address now.
If the attachment opens Tower HARD drive but not in an email, see this if you use Outlook Express.
Cannot open. PPS attachments directly from Outlook Express using XP/SP2 or XP/SP3:

I have windows turns on, but when I try to access a browser it has a message for me that "Painting" cannot open this type of file... Even when I try to get on a web view... Even some of my icons resemble small paint pads. Really weird and I make a living on my PC so I don't know what to do. I tried to recover, and he said the same thing... When I go on FB it says I need to update my browsers and it wont let me update all the. I can't really do anything without this message coming... Now, I just got a message from windows Security Center that will not start security... It has to do with a bitmap file
Looks like you have somehow your file types of website related ('open with') the Paint program. I couldn't begin to guess how this happened, but here's how to fix this:
Use the search box to find and open the settings to "Default programs", then scroll down and click "Choose default app settings. Which opens the control panel 7-style old instead. Click on your browser in the list, and then click "Set as default" for re - include all types of possible files that the browser again.

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

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.

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

Cannot change the default program to open certain types of files more
I opened the month .package file type by using a specific .exe designed to cope. I got this morning and by clicking on a .package file brought to the top of the screen "choose default program". I chose the appropriate program, but it does not appear in the screen of the recommended program, and I can't find any way to make it use the default .exe. I tried to change it in the area of selection of the programs in the the control panel by default and hot at the same result. I can still open the files by starting the program manually and choosing the option 'Open', but it is a tedious and repetitive task! This program is used to group graphic files in a specific format, and it is not uncommon to open and close files .package 5 6 times in a period of 10 minutes. I really need to fix this ASAP. My productivity has come to a near standstill.
I'm on Win7 64-bit, the program in question is a stand-alone that has always been in its own folder in the downloads library. I tried to move to the folder program files (x 86), but that did not help. Windows recognizes the program when I make the request to select the default program. When I try to use it however, it is not an option.I was going to link to the Microsoft Developer Network instructions, but it's a pretty large amount of information for it, so, let me suggest a small program that should be able to do it for you.

Cannot open or save an attachment in Windows Mail
Hello
I can't open or save attachments in Windows Mail. I can see the attachment and highlight it. However, double clicking on it does nothing. Make a click right attachment makes appear an option "save under", but when I try to save it, I get an error message saying, "the command cannot be run."
I've never had a problem with Window Mail until yesterday. The problem started immediately after agreeing to compact the database of e-mail in Windows Mail. My Outlook in Office 2007 still works fine.
Now, I've read a few interesting comments on the Web about this issue. The tips are given is a variety of different bugs 'proposed '. To some I've seen:
1. checking / unchecking option boxes withinin Windows Mail Security (does nothing).
2. turn off your A / V by sending an e-mail to scanning or uninstalling your antivirus total program (at the same time - nothing has changed).
3 window mail accounts are corrupt due to antivirus updates installed (I have not deleted my accounts yet, but he can try it tonight).
4 Microsoft don't support Windows Mail, so install Window Live Mail! (this suggestion from a Microsoft representative real - I think it's very disturbing, because I paid for Windows Mail, which is part of Vista).
OS - Vista Home Premium (latest drivers and updates)
Anyway, if anyone has any info on this issue, any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!
Hi all
As I was listing the foregoing, it dawned on me that it was perhaps related to the security settings for the "Internet" zone
So, I opened IE (8), tools, Internet Options, Security tab. There, I saw something that I had not seen before, a checkbox titled enable Protected Mode; and it has been verified.
I've disabled and pressed to apply. He tells me that my computer is in danger, and I agreed to that.
The drag-and-drop attachment problem is now fixed.
I checked IE7, and it doesn't have such a box. Thus, the check box has been added with IE8, and its default value is checked.
I hope this is the last time that I visit this thread; But if it gets handed over by magic, I guess that I'll be back.

Cannot open many types of files at the same time.
I want to open several files of different types, such as word doc, excel, documents and photos.
In XP, you could simply select all the files you wanted to and press ENTER, and then they would all be opened. With 7, I am unable to do this.
It is very annoying to have to go through and open all the files one at a time, especially when I have to work on 10 + documents of different types at the same time.
I have looked around, but have been unable to find much on that other annoyed about this too.
That also works under Windows 7, but there is a limit of 15 files.
A lot of people would like to see this limit, changed, or deleted. You can get your opinion to the right people at Microsoft by going to the page give us your comments for Windows 7 . Boulder computer Maven

Computer hangs and cannot open certain programs
Hello
I've had my laptop (HP Pavilion dv6000 with Vista SP2) for almost two years now and I'm starting to have some problems. Until a month ago, everything was fine and in working order, however, I then had two "blue screens of death" in two days, and we've all been downhill since then.
After that, I got a message on one of my drivers being dead, but he came not again so I'm not sure what it says and I had too many other problems with my laptop used to be fine with things as simple 100%.
Some programs that I use often, such as iTunes and Football Coach today refuse to open in normal mode and only work in safe mode. In addition, my Windows Live OneCare is showing the message: 'Windows Live OneCare service does not work or has been arrested. To correct this problem, try restarting your computer. If problems continue, click below for assistance. "I tried the methods to run again, but he did not.
Also other things go wrong, such as the icons in my taskbar notification freezing as the network icons and battery, which allow me to click on them, but do nothing after that. Also if I try to open the update of Windows or my HP Total Care Advisor, then they both either do not open or just freezes on me.
I tried a restore of the system to a date when I know that these things worked, but this also does not work, and problems remain.
It would be better for me to just take down to a computer repair shop that it should be considered by a professional, or is it useful to tempt me all the patches, you may need? Any advice anyone can give me would be much appreciated, even if it is just telling me that my laptop is dead!
See you soon,.
