• In "set your default programs" under Win7, file associations of Firefox are altered.

  "Set your default programs" in the control panel of Windows 7, Firefox appears in the list of "Programs" on the left. But its icon is that of Windows Media Player.

  After I click on the name of the program (Firefox) to see the details on the right, I noticed that Firefox icon becomes that of Windows Media Player, also. And "Mozilla Corporation" becomes "Microsoft Corporation".

  If I click on "Set this program as default", files of these types are opened by Windows Media Player, no Firefox:
  htm, html, shtml, xht, xhtml.

  So I must manually associate these file types Firefox to "associate a type of file or Protocol with a specific program.

  To resolve this problem, should what registry entries I change?

  You can try to uninstall and reinstall Firefox, perhaps as an administrator.

  Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

  Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

  • Firefox 24: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

  Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

  • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

  Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.
  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox

  Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  After losing, I tried to change the default program for rar files, but I couldn't. The box "Always use this program" is grayed out. I tried to run winrar and combine it with rar files, does not work, tried the same thing with 7zip, too does not work.

  Hello

  The capture tool can create image files that you can send an email, but you must have an e-mail program installed.

  Yahoo is an internet e-mail 'service' that works through your browser. You must install an e-mail program and then set up your Yahoo email account to work through this e-mail program.

  I think you need an email Yahoo Plus (paid) account to use it with a local mail program.

  Alternatively, you should be able to simply save the image file as a .jpg or .png file capture tool and attach it directly to an email from Yahoo.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you for using Windows 7

• I need to create an association in the default program control panel so I can reply to ads on craigslist, and don't know how to do

  I can send emails with my Yahoo homepage, but I can't send an email to the address on craigslist that my computer is telling me to create an association for email in the control panel of the default program and I need to know the steps to do this without ruining my computer. I've never used Craigslist before and have never had a problem with my computer functions

  Windows 7 and Internet Explorer support not to set a webmail application like e-mail by default but Yahoo has an option that can work for you - I don't use Yahoo email and I have tried the following: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/yahoomail/settings/settings-10.html the other thing you could do is copy the address in the craigslist (dray your mouse to select and press Ctrl + C to copy) and then go on your Yahool email and place the cursor in the address box and paste (using a menu item from Yahoo or using Ctrl + V for paste).
