When I click on a folder in the right window I get," This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel." instead of the folder opening. Right clicking and then clicking on explore yields the same result, clicking on Open opens the window. Clicking on a folder in an explorer window opened by a program works normally.

Hi, This behavior can occur if the file you are trying to open is not associated with the correct program or the registry entries for the program are missing or damaged. First, please refer to the following link to check if it helps: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-windows_programs/this-file-does-not-have-a-program-associated-with/1aed2afc-af99-480b-be3b-498e285411f9 If the issue persists, you may temporarily disable the third party security programs and boot in Clean Boot to test. Please create a new user account to test the issue.
