Unusual Problem


Pirate®

Recommended Posts

Are you able to use the search function? If so, try searching for "calc.exe". Then, you'll see if it has been removed or if it has been moved in some way. I would also suggest a complete Scandisk. That could solve the problem as tester_pedro stated. Try it.

I know that it is not letting you run exe files but here is a shot in the dark

see if you can open regedit.exe (start -> run -> regedit)

make sure your registry value in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\Shell\Open\Command

The REG_SZ entry in the right-hand pane should read:

"%1" %*

Quotes included, and a space before the second %

this entry tells XP how to handle exe files

Chili I did that, I cant open regedit

and Marthax I will try that

@chilifrei64: I think what Pirate® is trying to say is that his Windows can't find regedit.exe which makes reg files & settings useless. Try doing the same thing with the regedit.exe, search for it.

@chilifrei64: I think what Pirate® is trying to say is that his Windows can't find regedit.exe which makes reg files & settings useless. Try doing the same thing with the regedit.exe, search for it.

I know what he is trying to say... I am just trying to give him options.. he showed a screenshot of taskmanager with exe's running.. maybe some will work in different ways but not interactively with the user. that is why i gave him the reg file..

anyways.. it looks like he has bigger problems. Looks like you lost alot of files.. the best bet now is to reinstall then try and clean your files with AV

Unfortunately I won't be able to help any more than "re-install". I had a client with the same problem and that was my only solution.

I even tried executing files via CTRL-ALT-DEL File->Run and give a full path to the .exe file.

Hopefully I can clarify the symptoms...

Basically the computer acted as though there wasn't an associated app with the .EXE It's kinda like trying to open a .PDF or .XLS without the proper editor or viewer. Except windows doesn't have a "viewer" for .EXE files.

If there was a solution (other than reinstall) it would be wonderful for the future.

.....ok but can I still backup my other files.

I had the luxury of having a 2nd computer. The data is still there, it's just windows is royally hosed (maybe not, maybe a simple fix, but I wasn't aware of it).

Short answer.... I can't speak for your computer, but in my case yes the data files were just fine, once I did the following.

What I did was to:

1. Pull hard drive, connect to another computer. (another PC with working windows)

2. Backup files (I ususally use xcopy /e /s /c /i /h /k /v source destination) since windows likes to stop and pester with questions, or abort upon copy error, I use xcopy :) Oh yeah, of course the destination is a HD other than the one your copying from. (duh.. I know, but most people I deal with, this fact isn't that obvious).

3. Move HD back to original computer and WIPE IT CLEAN! I usually use Ranish Partition Manager to erase the MBR and delete the old partition.

4a. Thoroughly scrub data with anti-virus/spyware/etc

4b Reinstall Windows.

5. do step 1. (the same with the files)

6. copy your data back (put in a sub dir, so you don't clobber your spankin' new install.

7. put hd back into original computer and enjoy (well move your data back to where you want it).

8. reinstall apps.

If you don't have 2nd computer, but do have another hard drive, ou could probably just substitute above with a 2nd hard drive and vary the steps accordingly. Or if your really extra hardware challenged, you might get lucky and windows would be capable of burning a CD.
