.exe files does not open

• Shortcuts to programs, EXE files does not open (you will be asked which program I want to use to open the file)

  My system has developed a strange (and annoying) issue that no longer allows me to double click on the shortcuts of programs or EXE files.  When I do, I give myself a menu asks me what program I want to use to open the file, as if I was trying to open a file with an extension that is not associated with.

  The only way to get all the programs to run more is to right click on the shortcut and select "Run as Administrator".

  Right click on the shortcut also reveals a new 'momentum' (Yes, spelled with one S tiny) option in the menu.  I have not tried it works, in my view, it could be related to some false recently-removed security software that appeared out of nowhere last night.

  Any help to remedy this situation and get back to normal functionality would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

  If program shortcuts are not no longer works, you will need to use a procedure special difficulty fo files .lnk (similar to the one used above with .exe files).

  Go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/ and select the .lnk and run it.  That should fix your shortcuts.  Or you can use the link provided above by Michael Murphy - it does essentially the same thing.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Carry-over from flash player .exe files, does not open on Windows 8

  So I transfer files to an old flash drive last night and find an old computer games that I put on in 2008 (crazy, right?), but the computer I had back then was a Windows Vista. So, in an effort to try to get these games back, I copied them on my current computer which is Windows 8. Whenever I try to open the game itself, the .exe file, it will have the little blue circle as if it loads and then everything stops and nothing will happen. I tried as an administrator, the same thing happens. I tried troubleshooting, and she added the "Windows compatibility mode: Windows Vista (Service Pack 2), but when I press"Program of Test,"nothing happens - it's all the same little blue circle loading, and then nothing happens." When it has detected additional questions, the additional question was 'Incompatible program'. Is that what I can do to open these game files? Or they will simply not work on my new computer?

  Hi Sasha,

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  This issue may have caused due to compatibility issues.

  I suggest refer you to the following article from Microsoft Help to install the program in compatibility mode.

  This article consists of the steps to change the properties of configuration file, and then try to install the program and check.

• I got a fix, but the file does not open correctly. __

  I received this fix: http://hotfixv4.microsoft.com/Windows%20Vista/sp3/Fix291684/6000/free/395073_intl_i386_zip.exe

  The self-extracting file does not open correctly.  Any thoughts on how to get this to work?

  It's actually an executable file which probably opens a file or a zipped folder.

  If the procedures described above do not (or if you prefer another alternative), download the free 7 - Zip at: http://www.7-zip.org/ and install it and use it to open the zip file.  This should probably fix the problem.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Office Jet 8500 a makes a scan of document, converts and saves the PDF file, but the PDF file does not open

• .exe files are not open; affected by the Windows Security Center of lazy virus

  Hello!

  As the title indicates, none of my executables will open his; on the contrary, when I click on an icon or similar function (as in the start menu), I'm inclined to the screen 'open with... ». I noticed that most often, if I run the program as administrator, it is likely to work without having to manually find the file - still a bit tedious however.

  I'm assuming that since I was recently hit by the virus which is a fake Windows Security Center, something my registry has also been hit (take into account the fact that I'm not savvy computer in the slightest). It happened on my user account initial and rather than take action on the right, then, I decided that I would use the other account that I had to install a program better anti-virus (Norton provided ISP) than the one I had been using (the two admin). At that point, I had finished all my activity moved to the new account and it worked very well until the virus had one possessing this account as well - delete on the first user account seemed to have deleted only the effects of my account but still affected everything I did after that. This time, I went and deleted all accounts and checked to ensure that it is not at all. After getting rid of the virus, it's the same thing: none of my .exe files will open without using the monitor "open with...". ». I'm not really sure what action to take from here, I have not done much to remedy the situation, and I'm going right through the screen of "open with...". "to get to what whatever - so any suggestions or help would be very appreciated.

  Keypoints:

  • .exe files are not open (However, in some cases, the "Run as Administrator" option overrides it)
  • recently hit with (deleted) and fake Windows Security Center virus ; That's when the .exe is no longer
  • is not much in terms of addressing this problem, do not know what to do with regard to the question of if my situation calls for something specific

  I tried to cover everything that seemed important to address; However, if there is more need information, let me know. I am about average in terms of computer navigation and therefore my understanding of what many of these commands, functions and files is a bit Basic.

  Thank you! :)

  Hey sam1502,

  Let me know what happens if you copy files from the USB on your desktop, then open it in Reader.

  If the error persists, then try to disable the Protected Mode under ' Edit > Preferences > (protection) "and see if that helps.

  Let me know.

• .exe file does not run

  Hello!

  I was download Scratch 2.0 .exe, it is always successful, but trying to run blocks windows saying that the file does not have a digital signature validates that verifies its publisher.

  Now, what should be done, I want to. The Scratch webite statement announcing this:

  • If your editor offline crashes directly after the opening of Scratch, reinstall the editor offline Scratch 2 (see step 2 above). This problem is due to a bug introduced in Adobe Air version 14. (released in April 2014).
  • Graphic effects (in "looks") blocks may slow down due to a known bug of Flash projects.
  • The backpack is not yet available.

  I made the recommendation but the download of files always fail.

• Wisdom-soft .exe files are not open

  I have the wisdom-soft software, which generates .exe files. I play on my computer, but when I send by email, it will not open. I sent an email it myself and Norton sends all sorts of warnings from security. I go around them and the end result is, the file does not exist. I myself made sense, because when I try to contact the author, I can't spend or I get no answers. Was, I had? The specific program is MotionStudio 4.1. I have other software of this provider, same result.

  Thanks for the comments.
