Anyone got any other suggestions or any idea why none of what is supposed to
work is working? I know I'm not the only one having a problem like this,
there's even someone else posting with the exact same problem on the help
page for the file association fixes(commend #4):

It's really annoying having to track down .exes or having to go through the
properties menu every time I want to start a program.
