Hi, how are you?
I don't know what the problem is :s
I can open programs like word, excel or image viewers etc. if they are attachments in emails or documents saved on the desktop,
but i can’t open any programs directly or run any.exe files if i want to install a new program (it asks me what program i would like to use to open the program, but the only option is notepad.)
Except internet explorer for some reason will open from the start menu.
Firefox is the default browser, so if there is a link in a word document i can open it by opening the link.
Also, this is different, but on my older laptop, i was installing a software update for my cell phone and it had to uninstall the previous software, but for some reason the uninstall/install update didn’t work and stopped halfway through.
I think maybe the program uninstalled too much software by accident?
After that the start bar disappeared and i couldn't open internet explorer.
I can still open the task manager and do some things through there.
The screen is broken on that laptop, so i don't mind switching from it anyways...
I think i could burn my documents on a cd or copy to usb but i’m afraid to in case it’s a virus.
My sister recently got a new laptop so i can use her old one (this one)
...As you can see, we’re not a very tech-savvy family :s
If anyone who knows about this kind of thing is looking for a fun puzzle to solve please help me out!
I would really appreciate it
Thank you!
Happy new year
