    Double click on folders not working any more


    Hello Roel, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

    If you like, download and merge the .reg files for the listed Folder and Directory items in OPTION TWO of the tutorial below to see if they may help. They will restore the default associations and registry entries for folders that may help.

    I did this, but also not work. Get the same error *Sad ...

    Sorry, I cannot replay on your post.

    Best regards,
    Roel In that case, you might see if doing a system restore using a restore point dated before this happened to undo the cause.

    Sorry Brink, I read that but I'm not sure what i'm reading. Can I download Windows 10 somewhere so I can install that an other hard disk. The risk that I lose programs (for work) is to big for me. Sorry that I take so many time from you

    That's ok. Did uninstalling and hiding the update help?
