Default File Type Associations - Restore

Hi Shawn,

it worked like a charm and I also removed the string in ;

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\sup_auto_file\shell\read\command

It appears it still had the string for adobe acrobat reader.

I now have the blanc notepad like icon again, thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!

Juan.

Hi -

A friend of mine recently asked me to fix a broken keyboard on her laptop running Win 7 Home Premium. In checking it out, I found that the default programs for many file types were incorrectly set to Notepad. Using the Zip file collection of fixes from Brink's tutorial. I was able to fix most of them. A most sincere Thank You.

However, three Security Certificate extensons, .cer, .crt and .der, which should use Crypto Shell Extensions, remain associated with Notepad. I don't know how significant these are as in the short time I have had the computer I don't believe I have seen any issues related to this. If you can help, it would be most appreciated.

Finally, between your great tutorial and studying the reg files in your zip collection, I have started to gain some insight to the workings of the registry. Thanks again.

Don

Shawn -

Hello, I had a problem that all my files and programs opening a ms word document format then I read the instructions and downloaded the extension types and I merged all the 105 extension files on my computer and I restarted the computer it was back to normal, I really appreciate this help but Are these secured extension files that I have merged in my computer, please let us know so that we can take precautions before we go head with our computer? I have some personal files on my computer so is there any hacking personal files from my computer? Why I am asking this because I am new to this forum and I don't have much knowledge, I just saw the instructions, downloaded the extension file types and merged in my computer? I am sorry If I am saying anything wrong. It is just for clarification.

Thanks for all your help.
