I have encountered a very tricky problem, which is not running after entering Windows 2000. The process and experience of this issue will be discovered, and it is hoped that it will help everyone when you encounter similar problems in the future.
Fault phenomenon
One day, after booting, entering Windows 2000, suddenly popping up a dialog, title is "c: / program files / microsoft office / osa9.exe",
The prompt information is "the file does not have this operation. Please create the associated program in the folder option of the control panel." I am very surprised, I think: will I still run all the files named EXE? Sure enough, you can't open the appropriate program on all shortcut icons on your desktop links to the EXE file! I can take a cold sweat here.
Fault analysis must be a software or even a virus to delete or modify the file that extends extension extension, so according to the prompt of the previous dialog, the Folder option command is executed from the Control Panel, select the File Type tab, Can't find extensions EXE and its file associations in the "Registered File Type" list. Try Press the [New] button, enter ".exe" after the "File Extension", press the [Advanced] button, the system automatically defines its file type as "Application", and press [OK] button after "Register" The extension "exe" appears in the file type list, select it, press [Change] button, and the system requires the program you want to use, but do you want to select what application to open the EXE file? It seems that this method is invalid, I have to press the [Cancel] button to return to the Folder Selection dialog. Since I have never heard of the file associated with the file to extension ".exe", select "EXE Apps" in the "Registered File Type" list, and press the [Delete] button to delete it. Since all EXE files cannot be executed, the registry editor can also be used (because I can only run the regedit.exe or regedit32.exe to open the Registry Editor) to modify the registry, it seems to restart the computer.
Press the [F8] key when "starting Windows ..." appears, "Windows 2000 Advanced Options Menu", select "The last correct configuration", still reports when you enter Windows 2000. I have to restart again. This time I choose "safe mode", although there is no error, I still can't run the EXE file. Try the "Safety Mode with Command Row" option, start the command line of the command prompt window, enter: help | more ("|" is the pipe symbol, located on the keyboard on the left of the backspace button), in the system display The first line I saw the following information "Assoc Displays or Modifies File Extension Associations", which is roughly "ASSOC display or modify the file extension association". When you are upset, don't worry, press anyg, continue to view, "ftype displays or modifies file type" ftype displays or modifies. ", Mostly" ftype display or modify files in file extension) Type ", originally hidden in the command prompt window, can be used to set the file extension association. Thus, in the command line, enter "Help Assoc" and "Help fType" two commands to obtain their usage (limited to space, no longer listed), followed by the following settings, finally resolved the EXE file failure .
Fault Solution First In command line input: assoc .exe to display the EXE file association, the system displays "Not extension .exe to find file association", no wonder the EXE file cannot be executed. Then enter: fType | more to split screen display all file type in the system, where there is a line displayed as "exefile ="% 1 "% *", however, if you associate an exefile, the fault will solve? Thus in the command line: assoc .exe = exefile (there is a space between Assoc and .exe), the screen displays ".exe = exec". Now close the command prompt window, press the "Windows Security" window to press the [Ctrl Alt Del] key button, press the [Shutdown] button, select the "Restart" option, start Windows 2000 after normal mode, all EXE files Can run normally. What time
Afterwards, the author re-executes the folder option command in the control panel, select the File Type tab, discovers that there is no EXE in the "Registered File Type" list, and there is no file type such as BAT and COM, and the folder option command is used. Unable to create these types of file associations, we can only set two commands in the command prompt window to use assoc and ftype
