• How to restore default file associations in Windows 7?

  One of my friends accidentally selected the option that makes Adobe Acrobat the default option for all types of files open in Windows 7.

  How can I help him restore the default values for what they were?  I find that having him edit individual file associations (IE Internet Explore to .url) does not work.

  Thank you for your help in advance.

• Vista not recognizing not not Photoshop as the default file association

  After loading Adobe CS5 Creative Suites, I can't Vista recognize Photoshop as my default for images more. After the implementation of the default programs (illustrator is in this list) and finding no Photoshop in the main list, or the list of other programs, I browse and find Photoshop CS5.exe and click on use this as my default, nothing happens. It is not recognized at all. Only (weird thing) Vista recognized it for opening .bmp and Photoshop has been listed as a program for this parameter. It will not recognize Photoshop for default opening of the .jpg, .jpeg, gif and tiff. It would really help find a solution for what I use Photoshop in my work. Thank you.

• I'm unable to change default file associations. The association always returns to what it was.

  I am running Windows 7 64 bit.  I can't change the file associations default for .exe and .ini files (I have not tried the other file extensions).  I tried to make the change by choosing "open with", select the desired program and checking the 'always use the selected program to open this type of file.  I also tried with the option "Default Programs/Set Associations" in the control panel.  No matter what I do, the association returns to what it was before (the Notepad in the case of .txt and .ini files)
  Any suggestions are appreciated.

  Thanks for your suggestion.  I tried Microsoft FixIt, but that did not help.  Then I remembered that I had installed and uninstalled a trial version of UltraEdit v. 18 on my computer.  This program partners with a variety of file types.  I reinstalled the trial version, making sure that it has been configured to not to associate any type of file and then uninstalled again.  Now everything works fine.

• new installation of cs6 32 and 64 bit on a pc windows 8.1 file association problem 64 bit

  If I have 32-bit cs6 open, then click on a psd file, it auto open in 32-bit software which is nice. However, if I have no instance of CS6 open and click a psd to open, it will always open the cs6 64-bit software, which is annoying and I would always shoot the 32 bit.

  I also tried a file associated with the psd to the cs6 32bits exe, but when you click it it opens however the cs6 64 bit... frustrating

  any ideal?

  I think that if you use regedit and find the Photoshop.exe key you will find the default to open and edit programs are set to the 64-bit exe.  Try changing them 32-bit exe, that's what my Windows 7 registry key look like. You would replace both of them to something like:

  "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Adobe Photoshop.exe" '%1 '.

  

  You have some plugins 32 bits in a third installed, is - why you want the 32-bit version to start

• Made settings and output module - Windows 7 default file location?

  Hi all

  Confession: I'm generally confused about render settings and output modules, so forgive me if this question seems stupid.

  Issue 1: Where AE stores the default render settings and output module files (I'm on Windows 7)? I want to save a copy of these in the case where I spoil them, but can not find the folder. I think these are files .aom and .ars, but I just upgraded my CC 2014, lost all my custom settings and to save the default values before as I have try to load my various custom files to see if I can recover my settings. When I get *.aom or * .ars, I can't find the settings to 'default' of late in 2013 (I think there is a more recent version somewhere.)

  Thanks in advance,

  Lori

  They are in the same folder as the file of the General preferences and the keyboard shortcuts file. You can open this folder by clicking on the button at the bottom of the Preferences dialog box.

  But there is no need to save the default values. If you delete the render settings or output module settings file, After Effects will recreate just the default values.

• WLM file associations associations of system

  I am running Win XP and Office WLM. I have Office 2003 is installed and all file associations are defined to use Office 2003. If I open a .doc from a folder, it opens in Word 2003 without problem.

  I installed a trial of Office 2010, to try it. This has obviously changed all my file associations, but I changed them back because I didn't want to use Office 2010 by default (it's so slow to start!).
  However, if I open a WLM desktop accessory, it always use Office 2010 to open the file. Why? Why it does not use the default file association?
  I know that I can save an attachment on my HARD drive and open from there (and it uses Word 2003 correctly), or I could uninstall Office 2010 trial and he will return to Office 2003 (I hope!), but I'd rather have WLM use default file associations.
  Is there a way I can force WLM to use Word 2003 high of the page open .doc files?

  When you change a file to open it with the windows photo viewer some how chaged all files on my computer to open with the photo viewer there are no restore points, or backups is there a way to cancel it or fix it

  Hi michaelwilliams,

  Method 1: Run the fixit available in the link below and check if that makes a difference-Worth to try

  Note: FixIt would attempt to recover bad sectors on the hard disk, in the course of this process there are chances of DATA loss from that particular area.

This would include the HTTP and HTTPS protocols.
  • If you click is an email address, it is the file association for the mailto: protocol that broke.
  • If it you click on a file as an attachment to the e-mail message, then this is the file association for the type of file (for example, .docx, .pdf, .jpg) concerned who broke.

  Assuming that you are talking about the first, (re-) represent Internet Explorer as default browser by clicking on the Start button then clicking default programs. Select set your default programs, and then Internet Explorer in the left page and click the Green Summit.

  To ensure that all users of the computer doesn't have the same problem, login Windows with an administrator account and return to the default programs page. This time, select set access and the computer program defaults.

  1. Select custom , and then click the chevrons pointing to extend the selection.
  2. Under choose a default browser, select Internet Explorer.
  3. For other browsers you use, select enable access to this program .
  4. Click OK, and then restart the computer.

• In Windows 7. LNK file associations changed

  All the desktop shortcut icons and icons of programs start on a new Windows 7machine have had their file association has changed all that was the default association to another program, IE. IE Explorer, so that none of the links will launch the program proper.  Change the open with everything a link to any other program causes all links to implement the selected program.  Therefore, nothing works.  Is there a file association by default for *. LNK files and if so the power can file association be changed back to the default value of correct Windows?  The system has Norton antivirus running and up to date so no indication of a problem of viruses, and even if the user is not sure, reminds in response a request 'open with' when starting a game.  All other configuration settings seem to agree.  Any suggestions?

  IS - THIS only simple allows you to delete the association

  SIMPLY CLICK remove .lnk file association AND THATS IT

• Windows won't let me not reset the file association for the .iso files

  (Inadvertently), I changed the default program for iso files in windows Explorer and I am unable to change it back. I tried to delete the registry for ".iso" and he always acknowledges as a file from windows Explorer. When I go to the Menu 'Open with' by do right click and choose the program by default, the box to make the selected program, the default is grayed out. I try to open the disc in burner program, but the file still shows the icon from the windows Explorer. A funny glitch happens when I try it... hundreds of explorer.exe process openness raw computer. I wrote a small program to kill them all and was fine... but I really want to solve this problem, so I don't accidentally double click and create this glitch. I'm looking for any answers, but understand that I cannot solve, but learn. What is a fish without the ability to catch it?
