    How do I change the icon back to original? PLEASE HELP ME?


    I accidentally change all default programs (firefox, internet explorer, EXE only files) into a different icon (utorrent) now, my programs dont function probably. How do i change it back to how they were so i can use it?
    so if i open internet explorer, it opens to utorrent and says iexplore.exe:torrent is not valid bencoding

    Welcome aboard :)

    Download teh registry filse for .exe and .lnk from the link Default File Type Associations - Restore and double click to merge those in the registry hive.

    Let us know if it worked or not.

    At the same time, uninstall utorrent, Run SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker , and then you may reinstall it.
