OK assuming that Anglish isn't your primary language...
Thats OK my first language is Texan! ;)
Do you mean:
1. When you click on an icon for... as an example... Microsoft Word a different program opens.
OR
2. When you click on an icon in the MY DOCUMENTS folder... as an example... that you expect will open with the program MICROSOFT WORD and a different program opens the file.
If the problem is the first one you have some form of malicious bad evil malware or virus on your computer...
If the program is the second type.
Pu t the mouse pointer ont he program you wish to identify.
click the RIGHT mouse button 1 time
select OPEN WITH from the popup menu
my OPEN WITH in XP has a slide out menu. I choose the option CHOOSE PROGRAM and a coice dialog window appears.
This window lists ALL programs that you have on your computer that can open or hope to open a file...
Near the bottom of that window is a small; square check box with a line of text next to it that says
"ALWAYS USE THIS PROGRAM TO OPEN SELECTED FILE..."
or some such phrase.
select the program you wish to associate with that file type and make sure this box is checked.
click OK
That program will be the default opener for that file type from now on.
{{{{{{{ NOTE }}}}}}}
If you install new software. A word Processor or Paint or Graphics program most of them will let you decide which file types to associate with the program... some will choose this for you.
If you need this in Spanish I can attempt it but there are a few more people out there that are better than I. If youneed it in German??? Possibly Grey Alien??? I am unsure... and other langs... just ask!
