Application problem
« on: July 06, 2007, 08:52:24 AM »
I have written a number of Visual Basic programs which I find very useful, and have subsequently made these programs .exe files.  I pinned these programs to my start menu, but one of them wasn't displaying the usual Visual Basic icon.  Stupidly, I right-clicked on it and was somehow given the option to 'open with....'.  I clicked on this and then chose visual basic from the menu, clicked apply, then OK.  Now I find that every single application tries to open with visual basic, which obviously cannot load these applications.  Nor can I use system restore, because that also tries to open with visual basic.  Any suggestions?

    You can just try to right click it and change it back to the prog it belongs to.
    If this doesn't work than you can go to explorer -> Tools -> Folder options -> File types and look for exe there you can change it.
