Oct 23, 2011I was trying to open a .lnk file and when I when to open it I clicked open in PDF file format. All my icons on my desktop turned into PDF files and I couldn't even open Firefox or Yahoo communicator because it was in the wrong format. I tried to follow some help and download and merge the .reg fix. I have tried different things and restarted my PC many times. All the icons look like the .reg building blocks now and I can not restore the icons like before.

Jul 26, 2012For a week or so now, I've been having this issue where I can't delete this file without an extension. It was supposed to be a .RAR file but something failed and it left this.

Aug 5, 2012I have a document that has acquired a .lnk extension and shows a Shortcut type file and I cannot open.I was suggested to go to Sart > Control Panel > Programs > Default Programs > Associate a file type or protrocol with a program > Set Assocations I did that and chose Word to open the document. The result was that almost all programs including IE and Systems Tool tried to open with Word.I had to run a System Restore from the Control Panel and all is fine now. However, can someone give me an idea how the document got the .lnk extension and Shortcut type? Also, is there a solution to this being that the above didn't work?I still cannot open the document and the program associated with .lnk reverted to unknown application.

Change File Extension Upper/lower Case?
Jun 2, 2011Everyday I upload some files to my website and to simplify my website operations, I use the same filename and just upload a file with new information every day. The case of file extensions is of no consequence to Windows 7, but it matters to my website. I want to standardize on one case and it doesn't matter which as long it's the same all the time. I have one app, the snipping tool, which seems to generally make files using uppercase, but I have some existing files that are lower case. I have tried to get rid of the lower case extensions by deleting the file and then recreating it with the same name. When I do, Windows changes the case from upper to lower. If I simply create a brand new file with no previous instances of that file in existence (as far as I know), then the default case is upper. How does one go about converting all existing files of a particular type to a standard file extension case, be it upper or lower.
View 8 Replies View RelatedWhats The Best File Extension/codec For 1080p/5.1 Streaming
Dec 19, 2011I'm looking to stream some of my Bluray rips from my Media Center server to my 360. I just recently got a 1080p TV (kinda late I know) and was just doing rips at 720p in .mkv and then converting them using mkv2vob to .m2ts using what I assume is an mpeg2 codec. I've noticed if I do the same with 1080p movies it stutters and the sound cuts out here and there. I havent tried yet, but I read that using x264 as the codec and .mp4 as the containter (please forgive me I'm using the wrong terminology, I really dont know a ton about this). Would that give me better performance? Or could someone suggest a way to make 1080p while still keeping good quality 5.1 audio stream perfectly?
Heres my "server's" specs and network if it helps:
AMD 9600 Quad Core
4gb RAM
10/100 LAN (no gigabit)
GeForce 8600GT graphics card
Netgear 16 port 10/100 switch, both the 360 and the server are on it. It might be important to note that the server could be recording one or two shows at once while I'm watching the movie.
Disable File Extension Recognition For Uploading Files To Website?
Jul 4, 2011I need to be able to upload jpeg files to our website and the software package I use for that requires that the filename be entered in lower case in the format "filename.jpg". However, I've recently upgraded from XP to Windows 7 and note that JPG is being added in uppercase after my typed fileneme so that I end up with "filename.jpg.JPG" which is rejected by the uploading software. My web designer tells me that this is attributable to automatic file type recognition in Windows 7, and not to the upload software. How can I switch that off?
View 2 Replies View RelatedPermissions Error When Opening A File With Unknown Extension Type?
Sep 11, 2012I am experiencing a problem with Windows 7 professional, 32 bit, where I am getting an error message (detailed below) when trying to open a file with an unregistered extension. For example, if I rename a file that ends in .txt and contains text, to something with a .test extension the "Open with..." dialog never appears, and I instead get the permission denied message. AVG premium is installed, however through a combination of disabling AVG as well as providing exceptions to the file extension, I can fairly safely rule out intervention from AVG. Windows Defender is disabled, Windows UAC is disabled as well. The Windows Firewall is on, but checking the settings for the firewall suggest no issues would be coming from there.To add to the fire, if I register the .test extension to open with notepad, the file will open fine and text is displayed as expected. Also of note, I can read the file from command prompt even when the extension is not registered to an application.

Mar 26, 2011Just formatted a laptop, reinstalled windows7 and all of the drivers. My laptop is an Acer Aspire 7738G-6006.
Here's the problem: To get the volume slider on the keyboard to work, I need to install Launch Manager. I found the download on the website and extracted it. When I run setup.exe though, absolutely nothing happens. It doesn't even show up for a split second in task manager.
I tried the same file on another computer and it ran just fine. I installed .Net framework as well as the C++ Runtime Distributable. No change. I've tried to run in compatibility as well as an administrator. I also tried Dependency Walker, it had this to say:
I tried downloading the new IE, no change, even tried DLing the DLL and putting it in the folder and that had no change either.

Cannot Copy Specific File From Usb
Dec 17, 2009since two days i am trying to copy a exe file from a usb stick to my machine.
i tried everything. completely disabled uac, logged on as "superadmin", gave all permissions that i could think of. but still.
the strange thing is that explorer does not even display the icon correctly. it shows only the "generic" exe icon.
everytime i try to copy the file windows tells me that i do not have the permission to make changes to the file.
btw:
- the file is not broken, nor is the usb stick. i tried it on another Windows 7 machine and it works just fine.
- tried to copy it on D: drive too... same problem.
- zipped the file. copied the zipped file successfully to the drive but when unzipping it the folder is empty without an error message.
- turned off defender and AV. just in case it thinks it's a bad file.
well, i never had this problem before. any ideas?
edit: i forgot to mention that this file on the usb is in the same folder with several other files which i can copy without any problems.
Denying Access To A Specific File
May 12, 2011I am about to transfer all the files pertaining to a project, copy them onto an external hard drive and give the drive to my client.There are 4 .VEG files (Sony Vegas files, my video editing software) that I would like to be protected. Meaning that only me can open those files. So that the client can't simply hire another dude with the same software and freely work on the project on his end. Actually I highly doubt that my client is even remotely capable of doing something like that but this is a security protocol I wanted to implement for a while and now is a good place to start.So is there a way to password protect those files or denying access altogether?

Jun 16, 2012I recently opened up an external hard drive of mine and attempted to open a specific file that contains video files. I don't know what type of files are contained within this folder, I just know that they are videos of some sort. My issue here is that when I click on the folder windows explorer will immediately freeze and upon clicking anywhere within the window or any other windows explorer window I receive the windows explorer is unresponsive with the usual restart, close and wait options. I have disabled thumbnails and there are no DivX related files on my computer and none found with shellexviewer. Although selecting it causes crashes, through my antivirus I am able to locate the folder and scan it though I can not open it.

Sep 19, 2011 I've reviewed several different examples of how forfiles works.
