i have a problem!

somehow i opened all my programs as torrent files.
i deleted the torrent program, but the programs are in unknown application and don't work.
i can't install new programs, cause they don't open. - mozzila firefox
everything comes in the same unknown application...
i am just a stupid blondie with poor English, so please someone explane to me what to do...
the system restore doesn't work,
thank u so much!!!!!!:icon_mrgreen:

maybe i should just add that my buttons don't work, so i can't restore the system and can't open the program correctly.....

Try going to tools - folder options - view tab then unselect hide extention types for known files. now all your files should end with .xxx

ex: file.exe

now you can right click on the file and go to properties and towards the top of the window it will say opens with: and to the right will be a button that says change.

when you press the change button select the program that matches the extention.

ex: .doc = word

thats the best way i can think of, hope it helps.

sorry after readong closer i noticed you said all your programs. Im assuming now that you mean all .exe files?
