Every time I try and open things on my computer, like internet explorer, windows player media, Aim, or my music etc. etc. files I get this message "this file has no program associated with it for performing this action. create an association in the control panel of binding together.
I don't know what that means. He started to do so after we have some malicious and unwanted software on our computer. I thought it was because of the problems, but it didn't disappear after the computer has been fixed. Can I run programs as an administrator. But how do I get it back, just double click and the program opens as usual?

Original title: file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action.
I make a business card CD on Auto Play Studio 8. I have completed the project and burned the cd to test on different computers. When I clicked on the 'Video game' button, I get this warning. "This file has no program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the control panel of the associations' Ok I made the proper action to take, and I still get the same problem. I did this on a XP pro, Vista and 7 PC.
Hi NoPCgeek,1. what program do you use to read the file present on the CD?
2. What is the format of the file present on the CD?Before playing the files on the CD, make sure you cross check if you have the right program installed on the computer. If you have not installed the right program, then we recommend you to install the program that supports the file type and use them to read the files on the CD.You can also change the default program to read this file. The program opens the file only if the file format is supported by the latter.

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

When I click on some attachments a box that says: "this file has no program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the control panel to define the Associations. " I don't know how to do this (if I'm unable to view these attachments).
How to do would be to install the appropriate program to open attachments if it is not installed, if it is installed the easiest to set the association would be to save a copy of the file on the desktop, right-click and select "open with...". "in the context menu, and then select the appropriate program if it is shown in the dialog box or use search to find it if it is not.

Hi Randy,
Welcome to the Windows Vista answers Forum!
I have a few questions about your concerns:
(a) game in which you try to read?
(b) is this the case with all games or any game in particular?
(c) you are trying to play the games that are built with Window Vista?
(d) what version of Window Vista do you use?
You can also try the suite of measures to define the association:
1. open the control panel. (Classic view)
2 click the default programs icon.
3 click on the link associated with a file type or Protocol with a program . (See screenshot below)
4 click the extension file type to change which program .exe association opens. (See screenshot below)
NOTE: It may take a while to load up5 click on change program button.
6 if the list, select the program that you want to be associated with (opens) the file extension. (See screenshot below)
(A) check the always use the selected program to open this type of program , and then click OK.
7 if the program is not listed, then click the Browse button and navigate to the .exe of the program you want to default to open the file extension.
(a) select the program.
(b) click on the Open button
(C) check the always use the selected program to open this type of program and click OK to apply.
This should solve your problem.
Hope this information is useful.

I can't open my c or d ' training or any other when I click it
Hello
· Remember to make changes to the system?
This happens because autorun.vbs is created by a virus or Trojan horse. The virus normally loads the file autorun.inf in the root of the folder all the hard drive or USB key and then run the autorun.bat file which contains script to apply and merge autorun.reg into the registry, with possible change in the following registry key to ensure that the virus is loaded at system startup:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
USERINIT = Userinit.exe, autorun.exe
Finally, autorun.bat will call wscript.exe to run autorun.vbs.
When the antivirus software or security detected the file autorun.vbs as infected, the file will be deleted or deleted or quarantined.
I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below and check if the problem is resolved.
Method 1:
I suggest running the fix which is present in the article below and check if the problem is resolved.
When you run an .exe on a Windows Vista-based or Windows 7 computer file, the file may start another program
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950505
If it does not help follow method 2
Method 2:
a. run the Task Manager (Ctrl-Alt-Del or right click on the taskbar)
b. stop wscript.exe process if available by selecting the name of the process, and then click on end process.
c. then terminate explorer.exe process.
d. in the Task Manager, click on file-> new task (run?).
e. type cmd in the box text open, and then click OK.
f. type the following command one by one, and then press the Enter key:
g. del c:\autorun.*/f/s/q/a
h. del d:\autorun.*/f/s/q/a
i. del e:\autorun.*/f/s/q/a
Where c, d, e each representative the drive letters on Windows System. If there are several disks or partitions available, continue to command by changing on the other drive letter. Note that you must also clean files autorun from USB flash drive or an external portable hard drive as the hard drive may also be infected.
If this does not help, follow the method 3.
Method 3:
a. click on start and click on run
b. type regsvr32 /i shell32.dll
c. Press ok
d. you will see a message DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in the successful shell32.dll file
