Hey I cannot open any folders by double click in my computer or Windows explorer?
I can right click open but not double click open folders in windows explorer or My computer. when I double click I get this error.
"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."
Last thing I remember 100% is that i was downloading and installing Peazip and was attempting to extract an .rar file. before I did those the double
click worked perfectly. So I tryed getting rid of PeaZip and the extracted files but still no dice. Hopefully someone can help.
Edit: I also tryed a full restart and virus scanning.

You could try to restore to a different time before this happened.

Ok this has not solved my problem upon doing this I tryed 6 differnt restore points all fails with this message.
System Restore did not complete successfully. Your computer's systems files and settings were not changed.
I did a chk dsk and the problem still lingers
Details:
System restored failed while scanning the file system on the drive C:\
The drive might be corrupt. You might want to retry System restore after running chkdsk /R on this disk.
An unspecified error occurred during System Restore. (0x8000ffff).

I solved it. the new PeaZip 3.6.2 and 3.6.1 do not work with my system.

Glad to hear the issue is solved and thankings for the sharing.
And for the compatibility issue, contact the manufacture could be a better choice.

Hi all,
I do have the same problem like Wolfae did but mine is different from him. I got virus attacked.
I tried several way to fix this by doing update regedit.exe, run regcleaner and so on but still the problem can't be solved.
But as I assumed, must be virus attacked and so I download AVG PC- tuneup 2011, installed and run ....woola......it's fixed.
you can find it here http://free.avg.com/us-en/download-avg-pctuneup
Thank you AVG.
If someone having a problem with this sort of problem please do this.
I just want to share that something that I know from my experiences.
all the best,
BM
