Hello-
I'm looking for here (or get) help directed to the right forum regarding an error message I got when trying to open a PDF file. The error message indicates "this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if such is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel. "To be quite honest, I don't have the slightest idea as to what to do with respect to this message and I need some advice ASAP. I have the latest Adobe Acrobat Reader installed and if I have to contact them instead about my problem, please let me know.

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.
