I am unable to open any application because “open with” window pops up and ask me which program I want to open this file with? , I have no idea whether it is a virus , If anyone has the answer to solve this issue, I would be very grateful
Hello Iris,
I have read your concern regarding Windows 7 file opening. As what you are saying, it seems to be a good sign that there is no virus involved in it. When an “open with” window pops up and asks you to what program you wanted to open the file with, it only ask you the mere question. The only thing you can do is select to what type of program you will be using for the file. For example, in a “.doc” file, you can select from various programs installed in your computer, it can be either “Microsoft Word” “Open Office” “Note Pad” “Word Pad” or other various programs applicable to the file. After selecting the program, you can enjoy and modify the file you have opened.
By the way, you are seeing this window because you might not have changed the default Program opening for a specific file. I hope I am in the right track of understanding your concern and give you a hand to fix the problem.
I hope this information is of good help.
Regards,
Mali
Hello Iris,
I doubt if that is a virus. The open with window might be popping up because the file was saved in a format which is not supported by any application on your computer, and then you will need to choose a format that you will want to open the file with using the following procedure:
That should enable you to open that file without a problem.
