    Open files with thing


    So I was trying to make my own link cursor by opening one of the cursors in paint.net. Then I hadn't realised that I accidentally left the box ticked that said "Always use this app to open .cur files" So because of this, now all the files are "paint" files After paint.net failed I tried Microsoft Paint".


    Now all of the files are paint files as you can see and now I don't know which cursor is which. Please help me as I would greatly appreciate it.

    PowerPoint file crashes PowerPoint upon opening

    since this happens in some of the computers only, suggest that you open the file on working computer and copy everything and paste to a new powerpoint file.
    most of the time it works to me. *Smile Open files with thing :)
