Default File Association options grey-ed out
Hope its understood I am unable to make or change file associations. (Win 7 UL x64). Option are completely grey-ed or I get the "file unrecognized...go to and set file association..." Don't recall when this first happened but I'm sure it has to do with me d/l some mischievous file, being I do a bit of torrent downloads...
I've seen on the net solutions for using the reg to fix individual extensions, but nothing for a single key which would reset the global associations options as a whole.
I used sfc /scannow, restore point, malwarebytes, UAC off and on, virus cleanser, reg cleanser, etc., all to no avail.
Again, short of a total system re-install, is there a single or global fix for this malady?
I appreciate your time.
