    All programs now opening as "Steam"


    Please help, I was trying to get a game to open 'with steam' and I accidentally changed every single one of my icons and programs into steam... I've tried doing a system restore but.. That too is opening steam.. (Not the greatest with computers xD) Would appreciate help if anyone has some advice or solutions to offer :)

    Hello Coconuthead, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    Downloading and merging the .reg files for the listed lnk (LNK) and EXE options in the tutorial that dreamer posted above should hopefully fix this for you. They will restore the default associations for them.

    Hope this helps, :)
