Hi, I think I do have the same problem. Unfortunately the solution given is not working,
since the regedit file wount open up. None of my exe files is starting up by double
clicking on the icon and their beneed links.
When trying to open up the regedit file, by using the run command C:\WINDOWS\regedit.exe,
I do come accross following error messages;
- Windows can not open this file: regedit.exe.. Ticking the Select the program from
a list where the Open with window apears, browsing to C:\WINDOWS\regedit.exe, following
error popups apear;
- Are you sure you want to add the information in C:\WINDOWS\regedit.exe to the registry?
- Cannot import C:\WINDOWS\regedit.exe The specified file is not a registry script.
You can import binary files from whiitin the registry editor.
I also found out that noting can be installed either, no error message, nothing,
nada.
Can y be of any assistance in this matter?
Thank you very much,
Phil
