Hi.
I have encountered a problem in which all applications are opening as a media player file. Whenever i open any application such as picasa, the vlc media player gets opened.
I tried using the restore defaults option, but it did not work. Even with inbuilt applications such as notepad, the same occurs.
Can anyone suggest a solution please.?

Thanks.

Hello and welcome to the forum.
Sounds like your file associations for your executables are messed up.
Grab the EXE fix from here Link Removed - Invalid URL
And read the instructions on that page for proper use of the fix.
