Hello, well before i begin here is where i had help already and had all the scans already:
http://www.geekstogo...rking-properly/

So, as you see above my problem is that whenever i double click something in Windows Explorer I get an error saying explorer.exe as the title. And it saying,
"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, crate an association in the Default Programs control panel."
This happens if i try to explore music, videos, documents, everything really. Well i was hoping someone knew what the problem is. I can't seem to find it. And it is not malware or anything sense it was rolled out in the malware/virus forum. Please could anyone help me? Thank you.
