Excessive process and wrong default programs

This all started with default programs, I accidentally made the most of open programs using a program by default called 'Windows explorer' and now I can't change it back. When I tried to restore it, I open explore to test if it worked, now the list of processes in the task manager has an infinite number close to the process "explorer.exe" opening and I don't know how to solve either. Can someone help me solve these two problems of mine?

  • Several errors in 'Blue screen of death' and all default programs are broken? (Windows 7)

    Hello, I recently built a computer. It is about 2 weeks old and runs Windows 7 Ultimate.

    When I got it, it worked fine, but suddenly any program which was not preinstalled / microsoft basic started to plant. So far, the only program of Microsoft crashing is Internet Explorer, which leads me to believe that I may have some kind of internet problem.

    What happens usually is I'll open a program, and it will crash, sometimes instantly and sometimes after an hour. I checked my diary of events, and it shows nothing after a crash.

    Sometimes even though I have a window open, I get the blue screen, with 4 Messages up to now:

    -System Service Exception

    -Memory management

    -Failure of Page in a non paged area

    -Driver IRQL not less or equal

    I saw each other once, the exception of the memory management, which I got 3 times.

    I have so far to try to resolve this problem:
    Updated all drivers

    System restored

    Uninstalled all unnecessary programs.

    Other ideas are appreciated, I would prefer no 'generic' as ideas, "have you tried to update -?", at this time I need a difficult solution.

    If memtest failed it's memory or the mobo slot.  Delete a stick (if you can) and repeat the test individually.

  • Addition of default programs to assign file types.

    For some reason, I can't designate Acrobat as default program for .pdf files.  When I try to do, Acrobat is not yet in the list of programs that may be affected.  When I use Browse to display the Acrobat program on my drive, and then click Open, the program is not added to the list and the default program for pdf files is not changed in Acrobat.

    Hello
     
    1. are you able to open successfully .pdf files?
     
    If you are able to open using Adobe Acrobat .pdf files, then it is not necessary to associate a program to open .pdf files Adobe Acrobat as the default program to open pdf files.
     
    To be included the program in Set Program Access and Computer Defaults, programs must be registered in the Windows registry. In General, the programs themselves register during installation.
     
    If your program does not appear in the list, it has not been registered and cannot be set as the default program using Set Program Access and computer defaults. Help with this program, contact the manufacturer of the program.

  • Cannot change default program windows 7 64 bit

    I have a user who is running windows 7 64 bit which cannot change default programs. This only happens on the computer if it is connect. So I think it has something to do with his profile.  I noticed that when I go in the Panel and click default programs on associated with a file type I can choose the new program, but it will not save.

    We just migrated to a new domain and transferred all the user profiles with the Microsoft migration tool.

  • When I open "Set your default programs" in my list of programs by default, Internet Explorer is not listed. Nothing happens when I try to add using "Set Program Access and Computer Defaults"

    It started when the links in my Windows Mail messages stopped working. I received an "Application not found" error when I clicked on a link in an e-mail. I went online to find an answer and told everything to use the list of default programs. But IE is not on it and I cannot Explorer to display in the list, no matter what I do. It is, however, listed as my browser program by default when I go to IE tools > Internet Options > programs.

    At the same time links Windows Mail has stopped working, IE icon disappeared from my office. However, I was able to restore, and that seems to work very well, like the Explorer himself. I tried to reset the default settings of IE using tools > Internet OPtions (although that I changed the personal settings), but that does not make the difference.

    Also, it seems that the 2nd IE icon (which looks like a small page, rather than the usual 'e' with halo) on my bar launch and in my programs. When I click on that, I get a message saying "Windows searches for IExplore.exe. To locate the file yourself,... "And then it says the shortcut has been changed or moved. This would be part of the problem?

    Hello purgould,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    You have whatever it be listed in your programs by default, or is it completely empty?
    If there is nothing listed, you can view the link here which has a solution that helped some people.

    If you don't have some programs listed in default programs, then that would probably not help.
    Have you tried doing a SFC/scannow?

    Try the following steps:

    First of all, we run System File Checker to see if you have a corrupt file system.

    Click Start

    Click on all programs

    Click Accessories, and then right-click on the command prompt.

    Select the Security tab and choose "Run as Administrator"

    Click on command prompt

    Type SFC/scannow.

    It will scan and repair any damaged operating system files.

    If please reply back and let us know if this helped with your question.

    Sincerely,
