I can't open .exe on Vista files

I tried the automatic fixing and it did not work, so I tried to manually fix, but now it's even worse.  When I click on it with the right button, it comes out a strange: "% 1" % *.

I have not the slightest idea what to do.

Any help is welcome

Hello

This issue could be due to corrupt files or if any third-party application has changed the default settings to the registry. I suggest you try the steps suggested in this article and check if this is useful:

    When you double-click a. EXE file, the program may not start, instead, it can open in Notepad
    (view the contents of .exe), or you can jump into any other application.

    You will need to uncheck 'Open documents as tabs... new' under ' Edit > Preferences > general "so that the two PDF files open in separate windows.

    Hi rodaks, george

    Images II 7 d would be directly supported in Photoshop CS5 as requiring a new camera raw.

    So, you must download the free DNG Converter to convert these images to DNG and then open the DNG converted in Photoshop.

    See this link for download DNG Converter 9.0:

  • I have a Nikon D 810 camera and Photoshop CS5.  I downloaded camera 8.8 Raw and DNG converter.  I can't open the raw (.nef) files, and treat them with the DNG Converter. What's not?

    I have a Nikon D 810 camera and Photoshop CS5.  I downloaded camera 8.8 Raw and DNG converter.  I can't open the raw (.nef) files, and treat them with the DNG Converter. What's not?  Thank you!

    As I said earlier, the DNG Converter works ONLY on files, not on files.

    Do not target the individual files.  Target Of THE FOLDER that contains them.

    Make sure that said FILE DO NOT contain any other files , you have already settled before, or your settings will be eliminated when re-converted to DNG.

    No need to write long explanations.  More messages are, the more chances you have of receiving relevant responses.

  • I can't open some of the files on the desktop!

    Hello!

    I can't open some files on my desktop computer. I can open the trash, I can open shortcuts, I can open the desktop.ini files, I can open DOCX files, I can open EXE files and I can open the VBS files. By opening the files, I mean a double click on the file icons. But I can't open the image (JPG or PNG) files.
    If I try a double click on any image file on my desktop nothing happens! If I click with the right button on the file icon and choose Preview is the same, nothing happens! But I can open files stored in the folder my pictures in C:\Users\User, either by double-clicking on file icons or by right-clicking them and choosing an excerptof images. Also, if I copy or move files that I have on the desktop to the images folder and then all of a sudden I can open them! I can double-click on the file icon or right-click and choose Preview. But if I return these files on the desktopand then I can't open them! What gives?
    I guess it has something to do with the security of files and folders settings. But I don't know what is wrong or what to do. Note that all these files, essentially all of the files stored in C:\Users have been restored from a backup file Acronis disk full (Full_backup_of_Vista_ (ST1PT1) .tib). I know that during the process of recovery of backup in Acronis True Image Home 2011 I left the default setting for the option 'recover files with their original security settings'.
    Leaving the possibility to 'recover files with their original security settings' on a led the old user account SID are listed in the list of security of files and/or folders (that is, S-1-5-21-3623811015-3361044348-30300820-1013). That is why, I decided to remove all of the restored files and bring them back again, but this time I unchecked the option 'recover files with their original security settings'. In this way, the files inherit security settings of the they are stored in folders.
    So I'm now always having problems with file security, even after the removal of the above option and restore files once more.
    There is no number unknown SID listed for these files now. All I see is the group Administrators , the SYSTEM group and Samir who is my user account. The same thing is shown for the Desktop folder. So why this would be a problem now? At the same time, the images folder has the account number S-1-5-21-2544407746-3790578479-2786702567-1000 unknown and yet I have no problem opening the files in this folder? So what's happening? What should I do?

    Problem solved!

    I used a software called ReProfiler that allows the user to manipulate user profiles in Winwows directly, without having to create a new user account. Because let's face it: having to create a new user account for the sole purpose of getting a new user profile belongs at the time of Windows 98! This procedure of old school does not belong to a Mac modern as Vista or 7!
    There is actually a way to delete a user profile in Windows Vista, without deleting a user account. It can be found by going to...
    1. start
    2 Control Panel
    3. system and Maintenance
    4 system
    5 Advanced System. This will display the system properties.
    6. in this dialog box, you click on settings, where it says "profiles". A new dialog box appears and allows you to delete selected users profiles. But there is no option to create a new. Why not Microsoft?...
    It's frustrating to not be able to continue to do things in the system and have to rely on third-party applications like ReProfiler.
    So I used ReProfiler reassign my user account on my user profile. I have done that and restarted the computer. But he seems to have no effect on the issue I had with the files on the desktop. But after deleting some files from the office, it started to work normally. I remember deleting a particular program shortcut that gave me the error message if I went to properties, Security tab. This shortcut was left over after you uninstall the program itself. After the removal of that thing, I was able to open any file on the desktop, even the photo files. So, I'm not sure if it was turned or a combination of things that this point sort, but I'm glad it still works.
    Lessons: Never restore ntuser.dat, ntuser.dat.log, ntuser.ini files when you restore files to a folder from a backup file users. This will probably mess things up. In addition, does not restore the security settings for the files and records of these files and folders to restore. Instead, they inherit the security settings appropriate to their parents. I think it's how I presented this problem in the first place.
  • Displays Windows cannot open .exe and .encre file extensions.

    I just downloaded codecs on a website affiliated to microsoft.  I decided to remove this program and my desktop icons went, including shortcut icons.  Double click on these icons got me the message "Windows cannot open this file".  Then displays a folder on my desktop more Winxp32.  Great, now my whole OS is on the desktop in a folder and I can't open any file.  I have since run REGEDIT. EXE and am waiting for additional help in our community... God bless my friends and what you believe in... ME

    A restore of the system at a time until your problem should solve your problem.  Since you can not click on shortcuts to start programs, you may need to start restoring the system in accordance with the following article:
