    hi daan...your english is ok.

    right-click on a file that you want opened in a different program, and then chose 'Open with...', then 'Choose default program' (or whatever it is in dutch) :)

    ah sorry, i misunderstood your post.

    do you have any system restore points saved?

    you can run system restore (and not paint) by typing rstrui into the search-box at bottom of start-menu.

    if that doesn't work, you can scan (and hopefully repair) system files by typing sfc /scannow into the same search-box. it will take a few minutes, but it sometimes repairs things.

    good luck, and let us know if it worked.

    do you not see something like this?

    i'm sorry but i know nothing about system restore (i've never used it myself - ever. )

    other people on this forum will be able to help.

    good luck
