  Hello JohnDeCastro,

  Thank you for posting.

  Ppl repeatedly face problems when opening. EXE files.

  • The EXE file opens in Notepad.
  • EXE file opens in a few other installed programs.
  • Windows displays the 'Open with' dialog box to select the program.
  • Windows displays the error message "Windows cannot find .exe file. Make sure you typed the name correctly.

  Most of the time it happens when you accidentally replace. Type of exe to Folder Options settings. Sometimes, it can happen due to the virus.

  In any case no need to worry. Here's a solution that will fix this annoying problem:

  1. open RUN command prompt by typing the command in the dialog box.

  2 provide now following command:

  cd\windows

  3 it will activate the Windows folder. Now provide following command to open the Registry Editor:

  Regedit

  4 now goto following key:

  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe

  In the right pane, change the value of default elements exefile key

  5 now goto:

  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Exefile\Shell\Open\Command

  In the right pane, change the value of the default key to:

  "%1" %*

  6 that's it. Now, quit the registry editor and restart your Windows. Now you should be able to open EXE files without any problem.

  Please let me know if this helps you.

• Why all my programs and files open with Microsoft word?

  All my programs and files open with Microsoft Word and I need to know how to change that?

  I've seen that happen before when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After Word selection using the Select a program from a list of programs installedand check always use the selected program to open this type of file, the Word document referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in Word, as it should.

  The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the browser will want to be opened by Word. This is known as a file association. . The same condition can occur if you have performed these actions on one. JPG or even a. EXE, but the. LNK explanation is much more likely.

  This has happened enough that a small utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is a registry hack to do this, but I recommend the utility unLNK for its ease of use.

  I used to send people on another site to download this utility, but this site has become confused with all the ads and fake download links. I put a copy on by SkyDrive own here.

  

  Just download, then use the utility to unassociate the. LNK files for the user or globally delete the file type and let windows rebuild a new default.

  Sound like you may be using Windows. Please check your windows Photoshop.exe registry key which version of Photoshop is open and edit with?  I remember that mine have been updated to 2015 CC but I changed the back ventilated at the 2014 to CC are many bugs in 2015 of CC. I also changed my Windows file associations to open with CC 2014.  I left Adobe Bridge file types associations 2015 CC.  There are simply too many places in Windows systems which appear to be involved with open with and file Associations.

• File open with ch

  Windows 7 last updated PS CC.  Happening since I have updated to 15.5.  Right click on a jpg file, open with... Photoshop is longer in the list.  I can, find and select photoshop.exe but the file will not open in Photoshop.  I also disabled the "always use the selected box...»

  

  I can locate PS and select but it does not open PS I have just crossed my registry and find indicators in the wrong directory for PS cc2015.5.  2015 has been uninstalled when I updated via the Cloud application.  Apparently Adobe does too well clean the registry.  Will restart and see what happens.

  Change all entries in registry for Photoshop CC 2015 to Photoshop CC 2015.5 fixed the problem.

• Open with default programs?

  Usually, I use Photoshop CC2015 and put it as the default program in bridge of CP. Sometimes, however, I want to run 32-bit Photoshop CC, to use existing plugins. If CC is already started, that bridge will use it, but is there a way open with CC with without execution of Photoshop and not temporarily change the default value of CC2015, then back again in the prefs?

  Well, in this case you can go to the location of the file using the /Explore Finder and right-click on the file< open="">< select="" the="" program="" you="" wish="" to="" open="">

• All files opening with the same program?

  Earlier today, I went to open a .zip with WinRar file. I've done this before and nothing is wrong, but this time, I noticed that all my desktop icons have changed and each of them were by opening with WinRar. It is especially annoying because I managed to download a Spanish version of WinRar somehow and do not include any of the popups.
  I saw others asking the same thing and answers telling to go in Control Panel > programs > default programs > Set Program Access and computer by default, but I can't get there, because I don't know what program I open with.
  I don't know if this has any sense at all and I feel stupid for not knowing all this, but some help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  Most likely, you have associated shortcuts (.lnk files) with WinRAR.  Although it is also possible that you have associated executables (.exe files) too (or instead).  Fortunately, both can be fixed.

  Here on this page is a list of all common file types.
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html

  Scroll down and look for LNK files, click on him and it will download a file from the registry.  Save this file to your desktop and run it to import the registry changes.  Restart when it's done and I hope that it will be all solved.

• Change what program files open with

  I tried to run a binary program with Java Se and accidentally had the race all similar programs with this program and it has changed from a majority of the programs on my computer to run with this and now none of them work at all. I was wondering if there is an easy way to restore them to the original program.

  Hello

  The best way to solve this problem would be to run the Windows system restore.  If you have Norton Internet Security installed, you must disable the Tamper Norton Protection as shown in step 2, on the link below.

  http://us.Norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docURL=20091112171719EN&LN=en_US

  Once you are done, turn off the PC.  Windows system restore is usaully better run in Mode without failure.  Tap away at f8 that you start the PC to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER.  When it has loaded, on the Start Menu, click principally made programs, accessories, click System Tools and run the system restore.  Choose a restore point before you changed the file association and then proceed to the restoration.  When you are finished, Windows will restart normally.

  Kind regards

• Any program I try to open display 'open with the program '. New number today.

  This morning when turning on my computer, I have tried to open Mozilla Firefox and first the small icon in the tray simply said Firefox.exe is not found.  When clicking on the desktop or pulling up the programs in the start menu, I went to "choose the program I want to use to open the file" screen with IE being the only option.  What happens now with all my programs to Trillian to Adobe.  Images does not open as the programs cannot be found.  Internet Explorer is the only program that will open.

  The only thing different is the new service pack (2 I think) for vista has been installed automatically last night before to stop.  I have antivirus software, etc and ran a scan without finding any problems.  Any suggestions as to what could be the cause and how to fix it?
