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?

  • All file associations went on my computer,

    I can't open anything except Internet Explorer on the computer. Even System Restore does not open, is there a way to restore the computer and fix file associations?

    You can open a normal file as search or my documents? If you can, go to tools, options, folders and file types. Who will appear the list of types of files on your computer. Check if you see here. Also, run regedit and check if you see file extension records in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. If they are actually missing, then you will need your windows CD-ROM.

    Equip your windows cd and restart your computer. on the first screen that you see or black screen, either go into your BIOS Setup to boot from the cd or continue to press F12 (if enabled) to enter your computers start menu and select to boot to the CD drive. Once you have selected you need to wait for windows to load all it's files and when they finish, choose to continue with the windows installation, when the installation program asks you to choose where you want to install it will say first check for installed versions of windows, and then it will ask you if you want to repair your windows installation and then press the right key to fix, I think it's R.

    Good luck with that!

  • . Lost exe file association: need a permanent solution

    About 5-6 months, I had a problem with a .exe file association. I could not open any programs (gadgets sidebar, Skype, msn, etc.). I searched through many solutions which work.
    I downloaded Microsoft Fix It ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/950505MicrosoftFixit50194) which is supposed to fix the exe solution. In addition, before this, I used a patch of file from a website called .exe association: http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/105/1/File-association-fixes-for-Windows-Vista.html
    The use of the file association fix modified .exe registry HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT exefile (default) value given in "Application". Then, after some requests for windows support, he said to transform the value '%1' % *.

    Can I use the MicrosoftFixit, restart my computer, and then wait for maybe 5 minutes, and my programs load early upward. The fix would last maybe a few weeks and he was coming back, I would do the same thing and I fix it again. It happened maybe 4 - 5 times in the past months.
    Now, just recently, whenever I restart my computer, the .exe problem. So I would continue to use the current method, I do and after a long time (maybe 30-45 minutes - it happened more time because my computer is slowing down - for some reason), it works again (until I open my computer where he would once again). I need a PERMANENT solution to this .exe problem where I cannot open any programs. I system restored but it still has the problem after each relog in. Thank you for helping.

    Reitarate, I need a permanent solution to the .exe file association problem because the problem keeps coming back even if I fix it, after each relog in... Help, please

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • virus jumble all my file associations and will not let me reset them... upgrading to windows 7 will overwrite everything on my comp. including viruses?

    The virus is a popup window that said it was a windows xp security 2011.  I tried to end it in task several times Manager, then did a system restore.  After I did a system restore all my file associations were all mixed upward and every sense, I try to change the associations, it won't let me.  It doesn't let me even open system restore or something like that.

    I expect BugBatter to answer here... but since it's been several hours and it didn't:

    before considering a change/upgrade of the operating system, you can check if you can solve the problem by following the directions/procedure listed here: http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?showtopic=82696

    before you say it cannot be done, take note of doing things exactly as specified... in particular, I would like to highlight the following points of special 3 which are:

    (1) If you are unable to download MBAM directly on the infected computer, you should download on another computer and then transfer it (via key) to the infected machine.

    (2) given that .exe files does not work on your computer, you will need to Rename the mbam-setup installation file . exe:

    mbam-setup. com:

    (3) Similarly, after installation of the MMFA, you will need to Rename it to mbam. exe for mbam. com in order to run it.

    Keeping these 3 points in mind, go back and follow, step by step, the procedure in the above link.

    NOTE: If Bugbatter here meets the time wherever you are reading this, then please follow all what she said which differs from my suggestion.

  • Cancel the file association for extension .lnk to origin of the "unknown program" settings

    I got interrupted and changed the file on the extension .lnk association to my browser.  Now, all shortcuts open with the browser.
    I need to restore this file associated with the unknown program.

    I tried running system restore, but it fails for reasons unknown, but probably because of a call to a .lnk (?) file

    No details on editing the registry to correct this errow would be appreciated.  Thank you.

    The answer to my own question, but for those of you are having problems with file associations in Windows 7, which does not propose a deletion or to remove the feature, see this link:
    http://www.Winhelponline.com/articles/231/1/an-utility-to-unassociate-file-types-in-Windows-7-and-Vista.html

    Download the unassoc zip file and follow the instructions.  Worked like a charm.

  • 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?

  • Weird file Association problem

    I have a new and unusual file association problem.  At the start, whenever the PC is turned on, this file association window opens:

    Here's the weird part: "Remy" is the name of the main user of this computer.

    In recent days, before that the problem began, I had worked on some of fixing nagging problems that could be fixed now (a little too soon to be sure).  Don't know if there is a link between what I've done and this file association problem...  But here's what I did:

    1 an error message for lack of file Association for an external hard drive has been corrected by the associations of fixation to the drive, folder and file from this page (see at the bottom of the box): http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/file-asso-fixes-for-windows-7/

    Specifically, these instructions

    In another forum "richardvetman" has this solution. I have not checked yet, but that's what he said:

    'Hi.

    The circular kernel context logger takes frequent pictures of the system in a file of 100 MB of RAM (not on the disc). It is needed.

    To fix the error "not start", look for the next file in the %windir%\panther\ folder:

    and rename it to

    He can stay in the \panther\ folder.

    Reboot and everything is done!
