As a result, to determine if the problem you are experiencing is caused by one or more system files that are used by Windows, run the System File Checker tool. The System File Checker tool analyzes the system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.
To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
- Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
- Right click on cmd in the list programs, and then click Run as administrator.
- If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
- At the command prompt, type the following line and press ENTER:
sfc/scannow (note the space before the backslash) - When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved.

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!

I tried the Bitware software and resque trying to clean my registry and we tried to search and also google to find the pane control set associations indicating my problem is there, but since I can't find the associations together I don't know if it would help me to be able to view my pics that are sent as attachments. Some of the accessories have worked in the past, but now I had the sender to send again and they still does not work. Some attachments work, but not ones I've tried before. 3 of them that I can't see has worked in the past, but now they do not work
