EXE Files not running after upgrade to Windows 10

Hi Sujay,

Welcome to Microsoft community.
We understand that, you are unable to open .exe files on your system and we are glad to assist you.


Before we proceed, I need more information to help you better.

• What are the applications or programs, are you trying to open?
• From where did you install the applications on your system?

Lets try to perform a clean boot and check, if it works. Setting the system in a clean boot state will help to identify if any third party applications or startup items are causing the issue.

Disclaimer: After clean boot troubleshooting steps, refer to the section "How to reset the computer to start as usual after troubleshooting with clean boot" in the provided link to return your computer to Normal startup mode.

Also, I suggest you to right click on the setup .exe file and select Run as administrator option and check, if it works.

Hope it helps. Reply with the result and I'll be happy to help you further.

Thank you.
