Welcome to visit my blog https://wyue.name

Today encountered a very strange problem, the symptom is: There is a precision.thm file, in My computer becomes an unrecognized file type, I know should be opened with Themebuilder.exe, I also installed the software, and then as a general method, on the file right click, select " Open with ", no themebuilder.exe in the program list, click" Browse " Find Themebuilder.exe directory, check and open, strange things appear, program list or not this program, re-examination several times, is this result, so Google, experiment, quickly solved, will be the method to record:
1. First see if the target program is located in the path contains Chinese characters, and some of the best things to reinstall, so that the path does not include English, this is the first condition;
2. Check after 1, is the focus of the record, the following two ways, can be resolved, the difference is the first way of intuitive, the second way more essential, the following respectively, read this article's friends choose it:
1. Open "My Computer", go to a folder, and then click on the Menu "Tools", "Folder Options", select the "File Type" tab, first look at the "Registered file types" List there is no file type you want to set (actually look at the extension, Specific to the above case is to see there is no. thm), some words to select, no words click the "New" button under the list box, and then enter the extension such as ". tHM" and then determine;
Then look down, there is a detail box, there are two buttons, respectively, "Change" and "advanced", The Point "Advanced" button will appear a new dialog box, which is the change icon, you can choose the target program has changed the icon, and then the "Action" dialog box, if the dialog box has "open" this record to edit it, " The application used to perform the operation "Enter the correct path, cancel the use of DDE", the last one is OK, if there is no "open" this record, create a new operation, "action" add "open", "Application for performing operations" Enter the correct path, and finally determine.
2. The second way is to modify the registry, click "Start", "Run", enter "regedit" and determine to open the registry, under the Hkey_classes_root->applications there are many programs, Find the target program we are looking for such as Themebuilder.exe, open Shell->open->command in turn, you will see a program path, no unexpected words this path should be wrong, right-click this record, then point to modify, the path is correct, then close the registry;
Then follow the usual method to select the target program, it must be no problem.
Again, Windwos system is really difficult to use, easy to some puzzling strange problem, and a bit of error messages are not, and that huge obscure registry is a trash bin, with the habit of Linux back to look at Windows is a freak, Hope that these complaints will not cause macrosoft powder attack.
