  2. Membuka file/apk .exe muncul select an app to open this .exe file

    Hi, LSP UM

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    We understand that you have encountered the problem of accidentally setting Adobe Acrobat as the default application for opening .exe files, which causes all your applications to try to open using Adobe Acrobat. We suggest you try the following options:

    1. Reset the file association:

    - Right-click on any .exe file in File Explorer and select Properties.

    - In the General tab, click on "Change..." next to the "Open Method" button. In the General tab, click on "Open as" next to the "Change..." button.

    - A window will pop up showing a list of programs. You may not see the correct program here, so click on "More Applications", scroll down and select "Find other applications on this PC".

    - Navigate to and select the Open as Program.exe file and press Open. c:\windowsexplorer.exe

    2. Use the Control Panel:

    - Open the Control Panel and go to Default Programs > Set Associations.

    - Scroll down to find .exe in the list, select it, and click Change Program.

    - Select the correct program that should be or will be used to open the .exe file for that particular application. explorer.exe

    3. Registry Repair (Advanced): If the above steps don't work, you may need to fix the problem through the Windows Registry Editor. Please note that this is for advanced users, so proceed with caution.

    - Open the Registry Editor by pressing , type and press Enter. win + Rregedit

    - Navigate to . HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.exe

    - Delete the folder UserChoice.exe.

    - Close the Registry Editor and restart the computer.

    If the problem persists and you have previously created a System Restore Point, you may want to consider creating a System Restore Point before proceeding:

    1. Open Settings:

    - Click on the Start button in the lower left corner of the taskbar and select the Settings icon (gear shape).

    2. Go to Update and Security:

    - In the Settings window, click Update & Security.

    3. Select Restore:

    - In the Update & Security tab, select the Restore tab.

    4. Find Restore this PC:

    - Under the Restore tab, you will see a section for Restore this PC.

    5. Select Start:

    - Under the "Recover this PC" section, click "Start".

    6. Select either "Keep Files" or "Delete Everything":

    - Windows 11 will prompt you to choose whether to Keep Files or Delete Everything. Choosing Keep Files keeps your personal files but deletes installed applications and settings; choosing Delete Everything will restore your system to factory settings and delete all files.

    7. Select a restore point:

    - In the next step, you will see a list of available restore points. Select the specific restore point you wish to restore to and follow the on-screen instructions.

    8. Complete the restore:

    - After completing the above steps, the system will begin the restore process. Please wait patiently for the system to complete the restore operation.

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  4. My PC starts it dont open Explorer.exe

    Internet Explorer won't start

    Since it's not allowing you to open the settings of the Internet Explorer itself, we suggest that you type inetcpl.cpl on
    the search box to open the Internet Properties and follow the steps provided on the link that we have on our previous post.

    Note: In doing this you can now skip step 1 under Reset Internet Explorer settings.

    If the issue persists, we recommend that you uninstall and reinstall the Internet Explorer.
    To do this, follow the steps below:

    To uninstall the Internet Explorer, follow the steps below:


    • Click the Start button, type
      Programs and Features in the search box, and then select
      View installed updates.

    • Under Uninstall an update, scroll down to the
      Microsoft Windows section.

    • Right-click Internet Explorer 11, click Uninstall and then click
      Yes.

    • Click one of the following:
    • Restart now (to finish the process of uninstalling Internet Explorer 11 and restore the previous version of Internet Explorer)

    • Restart later

    To download and reinstall Internet Explorer, follow the steps below:


    • Check the System Type that you need to install by pressing
      Windows key + Pause key.
    • Check the System type under System (Ex: 64-bit Operating system, x64-based processor).

    • Download Internet Explorer 11 (Offline Installer) on this
      link.

    • Choose your preferred language and Service Pack (Ex: Windows 7 SP1 64-bit).

    • Follow the on-screen prompt.

    • Once done, check if the issues persists.

    Note: The installer that you can download on this link also applies in Windows 10.

    We'll wait for your update with the result.
