    Hello JP,

    This is an .exe (executable/application) file. Since it says setup, I'm assuming it's to install some program?

    Are you having any issues running any other programs on your computer.

    If this is only happening to .exe files, then you might see if downloading and merging the .reg file for the listed .exe option in the tutorial below may help.
