• Click on the link-get "Windows cannot open the file" select a program?

  After clicking on link get "Windows cannot open this file" have to manually "selecta program programs installed" Firefox appears as a choice and I double-click. How can I solve this problem / eliminate these extra steps
  ? Thank you Joe
  I am running Windows XP, MS office Outlook 2007

  Is it a link in an e-mail message in Outlook? This problem arises from time to time.

  While Firefox can usually set himself as the proper application to open the URL, you click in other programs, settings are sometimes blur or do not take. This article has tips to solve this problem: setting Firefox as the default browser does not work - what to do. Anything there help?

  If the problem persists, is there something special about how you start Firefox? For example, you have this launch in a security 'sandbox' or virtual machine? You have all the command-line options set to allow several simultaneous sessions of Firefox, or call the Profile Manager? If none of this sounds familiar to you, the answer is probably not.

• When I start my computer I get this error message: Windows cannot open this file: GLBD4EA.tmp

  When I start my computer, I get this error message:

  Windows cannot open this file: GLBD4EA.tmp

  To open this file, Windows needs to know what program you want to use to open it. Windows can go online to look for automatically, or you can manually select from a list of programs installed on your computer.

  What do you do?

  -Use the web service to find the appropriate program

  No selection works for me. I don't know what concerns the .tmp file, or why I need to open it.

• I get a message saying "Windows cannot open the file...". »

  I had a lot of problems with infections, so I was running many scanning programs.

  After getting my computer almost completely cleaned, I ran the Super Anti-Spyware program.  We find 3 infections, which I'd delete (I don't have no way of knowing that I removed).

  Since then, whenever I try to open a program, or even Windows Update, etc., I get a message saying:

  "Windows cannot open the file.  To open this file, Windows needs to know what kind of program has created.  Windows can go online to search automatically, or you can manually select from a list of programs.

  When I go on the web, I get a lot of options, which are almost free scans that then charge for fixing.  I am also very scared that I can also get another infection from these sites.

  I hope someone can help me solve this problem.

  Yes, each method is a set of measures to try and then go ahead and try each one separate.

  2 method will reset the executable (.exe) extension that will allow you to open programs. It is not clear what exactly you are trying to open so that it can have no effect.

  Keep in mind that the damage caused by malware can be irreversible, in the case of relocations are necessary.

• Error - Windows cannot open this file when trying to install Microsoft Gadgets.

  Original title: how to install gadget from Microsoft.

  I down loaded the gadgets and themes, when I go to install, Windows cannot open this file. If I get them from microsoft, it seems that windows can open.

  Hi mikemontgomery,

  If you use windows XP, it is not possible to install Microsoft Gadgets on it. Microsoft Gadgets are optimized for Windows Vista and Windows 7 only.

  However, you can use your favorite search engine to download third-party gadgets which can serve the purpose.

  Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

• Get the Error Message When you try to reinstall Vista: Windows cannot open the required file: E:\Sources\install.wim

  I'm trying to reinstall windows vista for the following reasons:

  1. I have SQL Server 2008 installed on my computer.  I deleted some files a long time ago and it screwed something and I couldn't reinstall.
  2. I had partitioned my hard drive for vista half and half SuSE and I deleted who and when I did, I think I deleted another partition - my recovery partition (E:\?).
  3. I need to clean my laptop.

  When I try to start the installation of a disk and I put in my product key, I get the following error:

  Windows cannot open the required file E:\Sources\install.wim.  The file does not exist.  Make suure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation.  Error code: 0 x 80070002.

  Let me know if you have any ideas how I can fix it.  My next step was to recreate this E directory and download the install.wim file and re start the installation.  I could not find the file install.wim well.

  Rob

  Hi Rob,

  I checked the link you provided.  What you downloaded was just the Vista recovery environment.  You cannot actually re - install Vista with that and if you blew your recovery partition unfortunately you may be out of luck.  You blew your partition containing Vista runs so the SFC will be of no help either.  I wish I had better news for you, but I don't see any way o get on without a Vista DVD.  I have good news for you if.  When you get your HP drive if you have problems with the installation, we will be able to help you with that.

  Take care and let us know if you need assistance when the disc arrives. Locutys of Borg
