So i was opening up an exe from a download manager and it asked the standard
"open with" question - i was so busy clicking around and getting to
understand vista that i chose INTERNET EXPLORER by accident.
Now i cannot open up any EXE files as it just opens IE over and over again.
How do i restore the "application" default back to the EXE file, it is not
listed under the file types and associations tab in Control Panel.
I cannot even get into some of the control panel items as it launches an exe
which of course opens IE which of course reopens the file which of course
opens IE > get the picture
This machine is now rendered useless until i can find a fix (can only find
registry fixes for XP online)
Thoughts.
