• When I open "Set your default programs" in my list of programs by default, Internet Explorer is not listed. Nothing happens when I try to add using "Set Program Access and Computer Defaults"

  It started when the links in my Windows Mail messages stopped working. I received an "Application not found" error when I clicked on a link in an e-mail. I went online to find an answer and told everything to use the list of default programs. But IE is not on it and I cannot Explorer to display in the list, no matter what I do. It is, however, listed as my browser program by default when I go to IE tools > Internet Options > programs.

  At the same time links Windows Mail has stopped working, IE icon disappeared from my office. However, I was able to restore, and that seems to work very well, like the Explorer himself. I tried to reset the default settings of IE using tools > Internet OPtions (although that I changed the personal settings), but that does not make the difference.

  Also, it seems that the 2nd IE icon (which looks like a small page, rather than the usual 'e' with halo) on my bar launch and in my programs. When I click on that, I get a message saying "Windows searches for IExplore.exe. To locate the file yourself,... "And then it says the shortcut has been changed or moved. This would be part of the problem?

  Hello purgould,

  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

  You have whatever it be listed in your programs by default, or is it completely empty?
  If there is nothing listed, you can view the link here which has a solution that helped some people.

  If you don't have some programs listed in default programs, then that would probably not help.
  Have you tried doing a SFC/scannow?

  Try the following steps:

  First of all, we run System File Checker to see if you have a corrupt file system.

  Click Start

  Click on all programs

  Click Accessories, and then right-click on the command prompt.

  Select the Security tab and choose "Run as Administrator"

  Click on command prompt

  Type SFC/scannow.

  It will scan and repair any damaged operating system files.

  If please reply back and let us know if this helped with your question.

  Sincerely,

  Thank you!

  Problem solved by a person post in the Forums of Vista, that what he said in this thread (Thread link: http://www.vistax64.com/general-discussion/202928-open-choose-default-program-error-vista-2.html#post939031 ):

  "PROBLEM SOLVED!"
  HOO HOO!

  I want to thank you once again BRINK for ideas on how to solve this problem.
  The next step below, this is how I solved this annoying problem:

  First of all, I came across this article on the Microsoft Web site by changing my google search to solve the problem. I started the google search with the following:

  'open with' lack of context menu

  Who brought results with the first being a microsoft link:

  Command 'Open with' missing from the context Menu

  Now the article didn't tell me exactly how to solve this problem, but it gave me an idea.
  He said look at the following reg key:

  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Unknown\shell\openas\command

  And he said to watch the following default value:

  C:\%windir%\rundll32.exe shell32.dll, OpenAs_RunDLL %1

  After that, I noticed that the value was different, but then I noticed in watching the article says that this applies to Windows 95 and 98.
  I then looked at the same key on my laptop that is running Vista Ultimate 32 bit also and I noticed there are subfolders on my laptop that my office did not have.
  It should look like the following:

  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Unknown
  \DefaultIcon
  \+Shell
  \+openas
  \COMMAND
  \+opendlg
  \COMMAND

  My office was only the DefaultIcon folder.
  Well I just copied the key from my laptop and voila... it worked.
  I thank the gods of the computer. This has really been bugging me. I know that some people would have just reconfigured or installed a new but I knew it was an easy fix. I thought it was a reg key or windows dll file, but I just need to find the location where he resided in. Luckily I came across this article which pointed me in the right direction. Now I feel like I accomplished something.

  Sorry if this is a bit long but I HATE it when I'm looking for answers in the forums and I see someone say they have solved their problem, but they either don't say anything about how they fixed or that they are so vague that they could didn't say anything.
  I hope this helps others if they have this problem.

  Thank you once again on BOARD! "

  That's all!

• How to set Windows Live Hotmail as my e-mail program by default on Windows 7?

  I had Windows Live Hotmail as my email program by default when I had XP but now with 7, I can't for some reason any. I don't want to use Windows Live Mail. I want just to link to Hotmail.

  I know what you're saying and I thought for a while also, but one day when I had XP, I went to set a new default and in the drop-down list e-mail client in Internet Explorer 8, it says Windows Live Hotmail. I have no idea how it got because that prior to that time I had never seen Hotmail it. Well, I thought that the situation would be similar to Windows 7 but IE 8 does not provide a drop-down menu here to set default programs, it just sends you to the control panel to actually choose a program. I want that Windows Live Hotmail has a plug-in or whatever you call, like Yahoo, so you can set it as your default email.

• I, stupid, changed the program by default to a BAT file to the cmd prompt, well, now I can't run the batch files now, please help!

  I, stupid, changed the program by default to a BAT file to the cmd prompt, well, now I can't run the batch files now, please help!

  Hi William,.

  Welcome to the Microsoft community.

  Batch file is a type of script file, a text file, containing a series of commands to be executed by the command prompt. When you run a batch file, it opens the command prompt to run the scripts.

  It would be great if you can answer the following questions:

  1. what happens when you try to run a batch file?

  2 are. what batch file you referring?

  3. the problem occurs for a particular batch file?

  First of all, I suggest you to check the commands written in a batch file. To do the same thing, just right-click on the batch file, and then click change. It will open Notepad with the list of orders scripted for this particular batch file.

  If you have additional questions on the computer, please ask your question about Windows and we will be happy to help you.

• How can I get firefox version 36 to play audio from our program by default selected and not embedded quicktime player?

  In our environment of the room, staff prefer to have MP3s from various sources to download open directly in the window of the program from the outside (here Goldwave is the favorite program). That being said, with the new version (36 specifically) the behavior of the program has changed so that the MP3s are open in a browser tab separated, regardless of the preferences in the window "Applications" of Options and the default values of the program in Windows. Previous adjustments to about: config media.windows - media - foundation.enabled as well as media.directshow.enabled and the setting to 'False' is more to solve this problem.

Can I do about it?
