On some documents, I get an error message that ends with "...» create an association in the Set Associations control panel. "Why do I get this and how to access this control panel?

Need help to access the Panel Associations value so I can open the docs have no association, according to the error message that I receive

Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

You need a program on your system to open these documents (file types), and the program must be associated with the file type. Go to start / Default programs / associate a file or Protocol with a program and scroll down to the types of files of these documents.  Can the default program open this type of file or the file type is same?  If this isn't the case, you will need to install a software that can read and open possibly work with the types of files in question.  Exactly which types of files you can not read (what are their extensions - the three digit after the name of the file identifier). ?  If you do not see the extension, go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / View / and uncheck Hide extensions of known and then file types try to look at the files again.

Please post back with results or if you have other issues (as may have answered your question).

I hope this helps.

Good luck!
