Windows 10: Win 10 "This file does not have a program associated with it for perfo

this is NOT the first time win 10 has given this issue for me when it updates: "
This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. ....."

it is NOT my fault that i can no longer open folders via right click or double click!
(as that's what microsoft help almost always implies),
it only happens when i update! which costs me in work time...
also this time it has also changed my audio settings so i couldnt get a piece of music finished in proper time and may have lost the client who wanted the work.

i can't even go into regedit folders to create a new key setting!

i can still get into folder via start menu>file explorer, but why should i have to? that is so slow.
and i should not have to waste time wondering what has happened to my audio each time i update!

is it any wonder why most professionals, or would be professionals always end up switching to mac or ubuntu?

anyone got a fix that will work since i cannot go into regedit folders to reset folder context menu settings so i get "open" instead of "cmd" on context menu?
incidentally, even using "cmd" does not work, i get the same "this file does not have..." notification!!!!!

and why the hell has the update taken out my audio?
everything seems fine when i go into device manager, except for when i look in audio driver properties> drivers> and see that the latest history note says needs further installing(WTF?) though when i click "update automatically" i am told everything is fine!

i depend on good audio as i make music!

i am on my last chance with windows here.... so sick of more probelms than benefits whichever version i have used.
it seems only really suited to folk who like social media, and watching movies (even then it is not very good either)

This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Locked out of folders!

I would try a System Restore which I do when my computer gets messed up usually from some program I installed.

 

"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel"

Dear Derek, you get the error because Unity is not intended to open .fbx files. Still, you can import them into the program with the aforementioned procedure.

You can try to contact Official Unity3d support for more detailed information:

Unity - Support

Please let us know if this helps.

worth mentioning too, i have tried to little automatic context menu fixes, which have never worked for me before...
always i do it manually by copy/paste a key in to a new folder in hkey class root shellex.....
(but as mentioned i am not allowed to do that now either!)
