Hey guys i have been reading on here b4 posting, but what's happened to me hasn't been answered.

I accidentally changed all my rar File extensions..
can anyone tell me how do i get it back to Default
because i changed the default opening to i.e and now its not acting right
how to restore to default file extension?___________________________
But unlike the responses you gave him, i dont have the system restore option .
Please note every single exe file is now a zip file..
I cant backup cause the backup file is a zip. i cant find where to or how to get a key in the registry changed, cause regedit.exe is now a zip. my choice are very limited. i have a recent back up stored on ext drive but to execute it i'd have to run c:/windows/system32/sdclt.exe...... also a zip file..
Can anyone please help me restore my pc, b4 resorting to a full system reinstall.
Just remember if your method requires a .exe file hidden anywhere in windows It wont work. Your haste and support is greatly appreciated.
ps i would screenshot but mspaint.exe aint working either
