No program Association in links direct mail. Error returned

I use windows 7 and live mail.  When I open e-mail and try to click on a link to a web site, an error message is returned. "This file has no program associated with it for performing this action.  Please install a program or, if such is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel. »

I tried to understand this and ask some computer assistance, but no help?

Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you

    Hi all

    Help needed please.

    HP dx2250 microtower, running Windows Vista Home Basic Edition, recently attacked by Vista Antispyware 2010. Norton 360 V3 dealt with rather late the virus, but the fall of the remains.

    I am unable to open any .exe file (program) on the desktop, start menu, or through the browser. I can access the programs in opening a data file, for example, double-click a .doc file opens MS Word, etc.

    The error message "this file has no program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the control panel to define the Associations. "

    I tried an automated solution that is available via the forums (exefix_cu.reg) and also a manual suggestion to change the registry, also available through the forum.

    I also splashed by and purchased Regcure, who seems to have done no difference despite who claims to have removed 1500 odd errors. So I'll be request the refund on that one.

    I scanned the forums and found a large number of similar problems, but not one that is as complete as this.

    Any help much appreciated

  • Soundcards 7 error IXPOOO. File TMP\patch.msp does not have a program associated with it for performing this action

    trying to update a program with an .exe file. windows\system32\cmd.exe opens and the error message opens. It is a windows 7 64 bit computer

    The file is not corrupted as it was sent directly to form me the server of LG electronics. I think that the problem comes from my computer. I tried to download other programs on the internet and now I get a message that the file is corrupted. The message is: "the Setup files are damaged, or are incompatible with this version of Setup. Fix the problem or get a new copy of the program. "It's too much of a coincidence. There is no way that I try to install all the files are corrupted.

    There may be something to do with the definition of default programs. I called my computer repair man to look at my computer.

    All the world run into this kind of problem?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forums.

    I see you've found an error "file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action" when you click office and recent places.

    1. Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
    2. What is the full error message?

    I suggest you to report to us the screenshot of the Advanced window so that we can understand what exactly the situation.

    See:

    The average while you can try the following steps and check if the error reappears.

    Method 1:

    Step 1:

    Start the computer in safe mode and check the number.

    Some options, including the mode safe mode, start Windows in a limited State, where only the essential is started. If a problem doesn't reappear when you start in safe mode, you can eliminate the default settings and basic device drivers and services as a possible cause.

    Follow this link provided below to start your computer in safe mode.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

    Step 2:

    Put the computer to boot and check if the problem persists.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 3 of the KB article provided above.

    Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

    It will be useful.

    Back with the details so that we can help you further. We also indicate the result of the suggested steps.
