Mend the,exe file association –
If you get the Open With dialog box when you click an executable file, it means that there’s a file association issue on Windows. This can also happen if the system tries to open the file in another program instead of simply loading it outright. When the file associations for,exe files are changed, your program, game or app might not start.
Instead, you get an opportunity to use another app to open the file. Or you get nothing. A corrupt file association is an issue many Windows users don’t know how to resolve. Luckily, you can use the Command Prompt program to quickly re-associate executable files with the,exe file type. All you need to do is enter a single command.
To do this, launch the Command Prompt with admin rights. Right-click the Start menu and select Command Prompt (Admin) from the list. If the option has been replaced, type “cmd” into Search and click “Run as administrator” under Command Prompt in the search results.
If the Command Prompt won’t open normally, open File Explorer, go to C/Windows/System32 and search for “cmd.exe”. Right-click the file and select “Run as administrator”. When the Command Prompt opens, type or paste the line below and hit the Enter key to run the command: assoc,exe=exefile This will re-establish the association between executable files and the,exe file extension.
You shouldn’t encounter further issues when you click on an app or program file.
