    Hi All,

    My son has a laptop with windows 7 32 bit and all of a sudden when he runs an .exe programme like World of Warcraft we get a popup saying view downloads and asks us if we with to run or save.
    How can i fix this so when we click on icon it runs automatically?
    I also tried system restore twice but got an error both times.
    Hoping someone can please help me.

    Cheers Shane

    I went here File Association Fixes for Windows 7 - The Winhelponline Blog and it fixed it.
    Just thought this might help someone else.

    Cheers

    Sorry we couldn't help but I'm betting you feel better, not only because you have fixed your son's issues but also because you did it on your own... I know that feeling.

    I, personally, appreciate the fact that you took the time to come back and post the answer as this will help the next guy and this is why we are all here.

    Thanks
