When i try to open certain files/folders etc. i get this windows popup box that says....
windows cannot open this file:
File: (shows name of file)
To open this file, windows needs to know what program created it.Windows can go online to look it up automatically,or you can manually select from a list of programs from your computer.
What do you want to do?
Use the web service to find the appropriate program.
Select the program from a list.
When i try to use the web it brings me to some crazy website that doesnt help at all.(shell.windows.com)It just gives me the n file type and file extension or whatever.And when i try to choose a program from the list it gives me a weird list of programs that i have, like microsoft word,internet explorer,nero burning rom,vlc media player etc.None of which help me at all.This happens really frequently and its very frustrating.What does it all mean?What can i do to fix it?
