I Couldn't Open Executable Files In Windows 7

Recently in my laptop, when I'm going to run executable files a message appeared saying that "These files can't be opened".

Some startup programs all so stopped loading, when windows starring some services are not get loaded because they are prevented loading by some thing windows security related problem, I couldn't realized what was going on.

This problem became more and more critical with time, even I couldn't run a new task above massage was appeared preventing run new task. It was getting weird, imaging a situation where you can't run executable files in windows.

So I tried following the instructions which given under the link at the bottom of the error message "Why can't these files be opened ?", but it didn't help for me.

I had a suspiciousness that a virus may cause these problems, so I ran full system scan several times. But I was wrong, no virus was found in my computer. This is getting worst day by day even I can't execute fixers which can downloaded from Microsoft web site. I was so helpless, I lost several important applications because of this error, the most suffering thing was the application for my touch pad doesn't work because of this damn error. I had lost all shortcuts I used with my touch pad.

I found some solutions on the internet in Microsoft answers web site.

But non of these solutions helped me. By that time I found another problem, that I can't change User Account Control settings. When I'm going to change UAC settings nothing happened when I click on the OK button, non of the changes got applied.

This step was a part of one of the solution. So I got mad and mad and mad...... So I decide to format the laptop and reinstall windows. Then I have to install all other applications and setting them for my works, ohhhh that is weird and time consuming.

After deciding to format, I was curious about one another solution. So I did it. Phew that was my lucky solution for the error. Only I had to do is reset Internet explorer settings. Such a small step resolves all problems. I did several critical things before such as editing registry for this error. I can't imaging such a small step resolves such a big but not much big as I thought problem.

Here is the proceeder to reset Internet explorer settings.

Open Control Panel -> Open Internet options-> Select Advanced tab, in there reset button can be found. Just click on the magic button and let the magic happens.

Now I can run any executable file without any problem and change User Account Control Settings.

I knew that windows can not be such a awkward operating system.
