whenever I try to use a program it shows me only: Watch the downloading programs

I can't use Skype, google chrome or other programs whenever I had a window where it is said: discovers downloads-windows internet explore and inside it: Skype. Ink and you want to open the program.

What should I do?

Hi snizorseb,

Go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/ and scroll down to EXE and click or double-click it to run the program to restore EXE file associations.  Once done, do the same for LNK entry.  That should restore your programs.  If you use Windows 7, go to http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html. If you are using XP, go to http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm.

To do this, use Internet Explorer and administrator.  You may need to restart if it does not itself on the fly (which is normally the case).

I hope this helps.

Good luck!
