Original title: registry exe problem
I have windows vista and when I click on a shortcut on the desktop I have a pop up asking what file to open it with. In order to open the file I find the actuall file. This also occurs when you download the software, which makes it difficult, because the file is not on the pc yet. All solutions?
Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.
You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.
Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.
I hope this helps. Good luck.

32-bit to 64-bit, or 64 bit to 32 bit is done by a new installation using a full version of the operating system.

I have Windows Vista and was able to SAVE flash from adobe, but it does not open. Can someone send me a link to a fix. I can't open videos, games or live videos. Someone please help. Should I change my operating system?
Software Adobe isn't really an option-backup software, you install adobe active X software to enable it. Whatever it is,
Just go to macromedia.com to install adobe... If she refuses, then your user account is not set as an administrator, to change

I have windows vista and somehow my picture turned screen 180 degrees backwards. How can I fix it?
Hello FrankHeinsohn,
Hold down the ALT and CTRL together and then press the left/right/up/down to change the orientation. Press the combination of keys followed by the arrow key to the left first to see if this changes the orientation (you may need to press the selected keys a number of times to get the correct orientation. If the left arrow does not try the right, if this does not work try the high and arrow down.
Usually, this action solved the problem. If she does not see if you have an icon in the Panel that gives, you go to your video card. Your card might be control NVidia or ATI control panel. Check the tabs until you see an option to change the orientation of the office. Yours, because the cat has his way, is currently portrait, change in landscape mode.

Hi Norman,
Unfortunately, you may not be able to repair Windows by using the features of normal repair since you do not have a disk. You may need to contact your hardware manufacturer to see what options they have to repair Windows.

I have windows 8 and ip4000. The software does not load and it doesn't seem to be a driver for 8 64-bit windows. What can I do?
Hello
I had the same problem. I was able to get around by loading the driver for Windows XP 64 bit from the Canon web site and then install the printer using the normal menu of 'install new printer' Windows 8. If I remember correctly, I could have gotten an error message or two, but the printer appears in the printer window and ran very well. Hope this works for you as well. -
