Somehow the file association for all .exe files has been deleted on my windows vista machine. For some reason the only thing I can open is Firefox. I think it was the result of a virus. So I have tried a couple registry edit fixes but none have worked. Has anyone run into this?

That did it. I thought I had tried that one already but I must not have! Thanks. – PICyourBrain Apr 10 '10 at 20:07

It would be nice if somebody could elaborate on what, "apply the .reg file" means. – Pointy Nov 30 '11 at 01:01

Double click the .reg file, then press "yes" for each dialog that pops up. – ctzdev Nov 30 '11 at 02:39
