Help with EXE

[RonK57]

Not sure what happened, but I somehow changed the extension to lnk and I can't open Jack. Restore wont open either. Been messing with sweetpack and roxio last couple of days. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Ron

You could also try to edit the registry as well to fix the problem.

Click Start, In the search box type "Command Prompt" and run it.

• Type the following commands one by one:

cd\windows

regedit

• If Registry Editor opens successfully, then navigate to the following key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ exefile \ shell \ open \ command

• Double-click the (Default) value in the right pane

• Delete the current value data, and then type:

"%1" %*

(ie., quote-percent-one-quote-space-percent-asterisk.)

• Navigate to:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.exe

• In the right-pane, set (default) to exefile

• Exit the Registry Editor.

Hope this helps
