There is no program associated to this...
I tried to help a friend speed up to his computer by having him clean its cache. I walked her through it and now she can't open attachments to emails. That's happened?
Save the file to disk. The right click on it and go to properties. Change. The select the program with which to open the file.

problem is email
I assume you are talking about email attachments. Each attachment has a three-character extension that associates the file with a program (in the start menu / default of programs / associate a file or Protocol with a program and then scroll through the list for the three-character extension). Many are well known (.doc for Word Documents) and .pdf for Adobe Reader documents, but some are not so well known. Some are also used by several different programs is sometimes important to know what program created the file in order to know what program to associate with her. Your best bet since it is emails is to ask the sender to you say the name and version of the program so that you can install a program that can at least find out if is not working with the file if you do not recognize the extension. Some attachments to e-mail are not intended to be read and there are programmatic reasons and must not be opened (but I can't give you a list of all of them - barely know they exist).
Sometimes you can google the extension (for example, google .avi http://www.afterdawn.com/glossary/terms/avi.cfm) and a link arises which will tell you what programs can do the file type and which programs can read or work with the file type (or you may need to go to other links to get this reversal - in this case a lot of programs can open the file because it is a very common file for which many different programs have been developed - program that it becomes irrelelevant). If it's a single program, so you know what you need. If more than one program, you must the sender to tell what program you used to create the file unless the .avi file that can be read by the host (or you can guess or try different options until you find one that works but this can take a long time, can damage the open file with wrong program and can be expensive if you buy one of the programs that you are testing).
In fact you do not define an association. When you install the program, the extensions it can handle are identified by the Setup program and included in the listing file associations. In fact, there is no way to add an extension to the registration of the association - you can change the programs that are used by the extensions in the list by default. Some extensions are added automatically by Vista when installed and work a little differently than others (for example, .lnk or .exe), but we don't need to go into that, unless the extension you are having problems with is one of those (you don't mention the extension so I can't give you advice).
I hope this helps.
Good luck! Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.

Your question has been marked as answered, only you do not mark it as such.

The marked answer * not * have one you used and for the benefit of those who might ask the same question in the future it is better the original poster mark their own answers, in my opinion.

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

6.2.16: when you try to update ITunes on my Windows laptop, I get the following error message: "there is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this teaching to complete could not be run. Contact your supplier of staff or the package of support ". There is no associated error code. I've never had a previous issue with ITunes updates. Thank you, Debbie
Repair Apple Software Update since the programs & features Panel configuration and then try again.
For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.
Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.
The more information box has direct links with the current and recent if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with third-party software.
Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

I got rid of a virus, but it seems to have struck my registry. None of my programs opens. When I click on them, I just get a tip line that says no file association.

Firstly, if your computer has been infected by malware, you removed and then use the system restore, chances are good, that the malware was placed on your computer.
Press CTRL-ALT-DEL and open Task Manager. Once there, click file, and then hold down the CTRL key and click New task (run). This will open a command prompt window. On the command line type assoc.exe = exefile > press ENTER. You should receive a prompt action succeeded.
Your shortcuts may have been separated as well. On the command line type assoc.lnk = lnkfile > press ENTER.
