Command Failed To Execute

Jul 29, 2009

I am getting the error "The command failed to execute" when I try opening a ..pps file in windows mail. I have Power Point 2000 installed (yes, I know, old version, but this my fathers machine and he is not wanting to buy the latest version if this continues to work, which I can understand). Anyway, the default file associations are properly set, and when the file is saved into the documents directory, you can click on the file and it will open properly. This problem is only happening in Windows Mail. Is there a simple fix to this?

Command Failed To Execute Fixed

May 21, 2009

Windows Vista/32 bit/Home Premium. I installed IE8, started getting "command failed to execute" when I tried to open an attachment in my Hotmail (old style not Live) on MSN Premium with MSN Explorer. They would open in Live. I like the old stuff because it's easier to use for me. I read the threads to uninstall IE8. I did and problem fixed. Go to microsoft.com, click on the support tab, click IE Solution Center, click How to uninstall IE8, click Microsoft Fix It.

If it goes to your Download Manager, run it fro there after it downloads. Restart and check as it tells you to see that it uninstalled. Hope this works for you also. You'd think Microsoft could put a package together that would work with their own systems.... I have another problem that no one seems to know how to fix, had a recommendation to go to Mozilla Firefox.

Mail: Command Failed To Execute

Jun 29, 2009

I opened my windows mail this morning. As many others have done. The "command failed to execute" came up when I tried to open a pdf or adobe file. I have never had trouble opening them before. So? I looked at another e-mail that had a pdf/adobe file attached and the same thing happened.

Could someone please advise. I went threw the posts and seems everyone thinks it is connected with their anti virus. I run Previx and have for several years. No updates to it lately and never a problem such as this. I made sure the security box was unchecked. Which it was.

Command Failed To Execute For E-mail Attachments

Jun 3, 2009

after installing automatic updates:ie8, winmail, Vista sp2, error message " command failed to execute" when attempting to open any type of attachment. only work around found is to save the attachment to a different folder then open. This is very annoying, it is un-believeable that MS would sabotage their own products with updates that DONT WORK, and I would expect a MS fix soon.

Command Failed To Execute :: Unable To Open Attachments After Update

May 29, 2009

When i installed IE 8 as part of a Windows update I now have a problem opening pictures and other attachments in Winmail. I note that everyone appears to be having a problem with this update. If it does not work, it needs to be removed from the updates for Windows Vista. Vista is enough of a pain without adding to it.

Error "command Failed To Execute" When Right Or Double Click On Mail

May 6, 2009

As of today I can no longer open attachments. I have already unchecked the box that won't allow certain attachments and that didn't work. If I right click on the mail and double click on the attachment I get the message, "command failed to execute". I used to be able to single left click on an attachment to open but that does nothing now, just sits there without even an error message. The only thing I've done differently is take an update that they said I needed in order to make my screen saver work. I did that days ago though, and that shouldn't have affected my mail.

Fixing "Command Failed To Execute" On Attachments

May 21, 2009

I see lots and lots of discussions. This is EASY to fix. I have Vista & IE8, BTW. click on Start (or the circle thingy for Vista), All Programs and right click Windows Mail (under All Programs, not on the start menu). Select Properties. The value "Start in:" is set to %UserProfile%. This does not work because opening an attachment cannot save the attachment to a temporary file on that folder. I changed it to "%UserProfile%Local SettingsTemp" and that fixes the problem. You can also just clear the field "Start in:" (remove the value) and that fixes it also.

Open The Web "The Command Failed To Execute"

Jun 19, 2009

I either get "the command failed to execute" or the attachment seems like it will open in the web and then nothing happens when trying to open attachments in Windows Vista. I recently installed IE8, but had the same problem when I had iE7, except I wouldn't get "the command failed to execute" error. It would just act as if it would open, but not do anything.

Open Attachment : "cannot Execute Command"

Jul 29, 2009

I'll write this question in english to reach a larger public, although this is a problem I have with windows mail on a x64 dutch vista. Whenever I try to open an attachment in Windows Mail when I specifically open it by clicking on it from the list with email items, I'm getting this error: "Cannot execute command". When I try to do the same by clicking on the message so it displays a preview in the preview window, and then clicking on the paper clip icon, it doesn't show a message, but nothing happens. It doesn't matter how small/large the attachments are nor what their file type is. I can save any attachment, neither approaches give me problems with that. But opening them won't work...This is really inconvenient, because I have to save the attachments to a temp folder all the time, before being able to open them by using Windows Explorer.

FDisk Command Doesn't Work From A Command Line Start

Mar 12, 2009

I am writing to this Forum in desperation because I cannot find any way to get in touch by email with Windows Live OneCare even though I am a paid subscriber. I have NOT had a good experience of MS tech support. After 18 months of endless problems with Windows VISTA Ultimate Edition V 6001 I now wish to reformat my computer and get RID of it altogether, replacing it with System 7 for which I have a serial number and a beta download from the recent Microsoft online download offer.

As VISTA seems to have eleminated DOS altogether and the old FDisk command doesn't work from a command line start, I have tried to reformat from my OEM Vista Ultimate Edition re-installation DVD which I am certain used to offer me reformat and partitioin delete as the first options but that no longer seems to offer me any reformat option at all and not only instists only on re-installing VISTA (which I no longer want) but leaves the old installation in a directory renamed "WindowsOld" which VISTA will then not allow me to delete....

Make A Command Prompt Run A Command As Soon As It Opens?

Nov 16, 2008

I've been trying to figure out how to make a command prompt run a command line as soon as the box comes up.

I need this to happen all from one command line. A command prompt needs to open with "echo hi" being ran as a command line.

Command Line Ren (Rename) Command Broken?

May 17, 2008

I'm having trouble with the REN command with wild cards as used from the command prompt. For example, in the REN command help, it says: "For example, if you had files that are named smitha.doc, smithb.doc, and smithc.doc, you could use the ren smith*.doc smythe*.doc command. All file names automatically show the new spelling, and are renamed smythea.doc, smytheb.doc, and smythec.doc.".........

When Ever I Execute An Exe File, I Can't Delete It Afterwards

Jul 28, 2009

I have a very unusual problem with my vista ultimate 64 bit, when ever I execute an exe file, I can't delete it afterwards. I can delete it after restart. There is no security problem, if I do not execute the file then I can delete, move and do what I want. The moment it is run, and certainly close it, I can't delete it any longer. I checked that the process is not running any more. I tried to see if something is locking the file, no handle was found on the file. It happens for different programs, no matter what as long as it is an .exe file. I tried unlocker program that said the file is not locked. It happens even on a usb key with FAT. The moment I run the exe from the key I can't delete it, and I can't remove the key the right way.

When I pull out the key, and return it, I can delete the file, it is free. But I can't do that to my hard drive. Tried scanning for virus, and malware - nothing was found. Tried security related, but since it happen on a usb FAT disk, and there is no security for that, I am starting to give up. At this time formatting the computer in not an option.

Software Disks Refuse To Execute

Nov 18, 2009

Alright. New here. Never been too tech savvy so hoping for assistance. Also, my apologies to the staff if this is in the wrong section. This problem that I'm having happens with every disk I purchase. Oddly enough, I can download software via websites just fine. And yes, in Hardware & Sound, it's set to "Play CDs or other media automatically".

Data Execution Prevention Or No-Execute Memory Protection?

May 17, 2009

I had DEP enabled in my Bios setup, but have just had my OS reinstalled (Vista Home Premium 32 bit) and now cannot find DEP mentioned by that name in the Bios settings. There is reference to "No-Execute Memory Protection"-is that DEP by another name, and if so do you agree it is a good idea to enable it?

Execute Downloaded Programs, Constant Application Crashes

Dec 12, 2007

Just installed my 3rd system onto Vista Ultimate x64. However, there is now a constant problem of when trying to execute downloaded programs (ie AVG, latest Directx) the application just crashes out in an AppCrash error. I have tried the UAC and permissions and SAFE MODE but nothing. I have read through varius Techs by MS but to no avail and have even done clean re-installs but still the same problem. I have read somewhere that Vista likes different files to be ordered, is ht correct and would anybody have an idea of what is happening?

Game DirectX 9 Install: Unble To Execute File

Mar 23, 2008

I purchased a download of this game from The Adventure Company website. All went well with the install until asked if I wanted to install DirectX 9.0. I chose to knowing that I have DirectX 10 on this system but had the following error message:

"Unble to execute File: C:programflile?can'treadmyownwriting?dreamfalldirectx dxsetup.exe Create process failed; code 740. The requested operation requires elevation." Then, when attempting to run the game, I get a message saying that D3DX9_27.DLL can't be found. The DX9 folder located in the Dreamfall folder is empty.

I uninstalled and reinstalled during which I snooped in the DirectX 9 folder (Dreamfall program files, directx folder) and found the missing .dll file and copied it to an empty folder in my documents prior to asking it to install DX9 of which the install again failed (and the DX folder emptied). I tried pasting the missing .dll into the Dreamfall folder and up came another error message when trying to run the game. I read that one could either paste d3dx9_27.dll into the sys32 folder or download & install DX9 from the Microsoft website but I'm scared to do so in case either of these solutions screws up DX 10.

May 27, 2008

I have got a nasty bug on my vista laptop. I have tried just about everything to clean it up but with no luck.

It also disable the shut down option arrow from the start menu. I have avast, AVG, SypBot, SuperAntiSpyware, Windows Defender, Windows Firewall and Hijackthis all have found problems but have not fixed the major issue.
