You need to change default programs associated with the files. If you’re using windows 7, you can just press start and click on «default programs». It should be the same with other OS but if not.. you should be able to find it by going control panel > install/uninstall programs. Another alternative is to download a software that deletes associates with file types. CNET download.com has those [used one in the past]

I had the same problem.This is due to virus.

which virus? how do you sort this?

It is not due to a virus…. :/. It’s your lnk file association. It’s very simple to change and not sure why Microsoft even made it that easy of an option.

All Your Desktop Icons Turned Into Word Icon.

I was working in my office when one of my co-worker asked me «Why all my desktop icons turned into Microsoft Word icon?» They asked me if they have to reformat everything in order to restore their computer to its original format, the answer is definitely «NO». Manually you can fix this problem easily.

This is the easy way to fix this problem when you come to encounter it. Just follow carefully the following steps. I’ve done this on Windows 7 operating system.

1. Press Start and click on «Search programs and files» box just beside the Start button.

2. Type «regedit» (stands for registry editor) then press Enter.

3. When the Registry Editor window opens
— click until you arrive at the last folder (which is the .lnk folder) HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerFileExts.lnk

— then delete the sub-folder under the .lnk folder (note: do not delete the .lnk folder itself)

In my co-workers computer I found this sub-folder «UserChoice» under the .lnk folder and its content was:

» Progid REG_SZ ApplicationsWinword.exe «

I think this means that all applications in your computer will use the Winword.exe to open. And that should not be the process. Delete this «UserChoice» folder.

4. That’s all, close the Registry Editor and restart your computer and everything will be back to normal.

Warning:
You may ask help from a person with knowledge in editing the Registry Editor if your not familiar with it. You will create more problems if you deleted the wrong folder.

Thanks and Hope you learn from my post.

Topic: All Desktop Icons Changed to Word (Read 25505 times)

0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.

Our computer or laptop has multiple numbers of programs installed. Our prime programs are Microsoft Office, Adobe Reader, Google Chrome, Firefox and much more. All these applications have their own format, but there might be some possibilities that all your desktop icons may get changed to word or pdf. For that, you need to bring out some solution and change the default programs as per the requirement.

The key reason for all desktop icons changed to the word or pdf is an issue with the default programs. Changing the default programs is the ultimate solution to the issue. Below mentioned is the simple method to fix the issue.

1) Open the Run dialogue ( Start Run or (Win) + R)
2) Type Regedit then click [OK ] or type Enter
3) Navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerFileExts
4) Search for the .lnk extension
5) Select the same and delete it
6) After deleting the file you can reboot or restart your computer or laptops.

After following these steps all the Desktop icons will get changed to their actual format. I hope these steps are easy to understand and implement.

Hello, yesterday I connected to my computer, then I started firefox and Word popped up, when I tried going on other things, the word pops up again. All my games on my desktop and icons is now Word icons.

Regrad thomas.

Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

—

You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

—

Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To do that click on start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these «error» with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

File associations are used by Windows to open a file automatically with an application which can be read when the file is double-clicked. Is the file association is corrupted you can deal with this kind of behavior.

I installed the latest update of Windows. All updates. However, I find myself with the yellow warning icon in the bar of tasks and install when closing down.

Description of the problem: a few days ago I installed the latest update of Windows. All updates, or so I think by the Windows Update Web page telling me so. However I find myself with the yellow warning icon telling me the KB2729450 update is ready on my computer and needs installation. However, the web page says that it successfully installed. I see the update in Add/REMOVE programs. I’ve deleted and reinstalled but still have the icon telling me to install it. Even when you turn off the computer the message is for me to install, but I think that it has already installed successfully. How can I get rid of these warnings?

Thanks for posting in the Microsoft community!

If I understand correctly, you receive a warning to install the update, even if it has already been installed. I’ll try to help you the question.

The update that you are warned with seems to be question of the .net framework. I have you provided the link that will repair your .net framework.

Windows 7 desktop icons are all links

Have a new windows 7. flying over my photos from the old computer. Some show a picture, so I right click for hopefully display image in an another photo viewer. I chose the windows photo viewer. All icons on the desktop has changed so that icon and I can’t open anything. They are all links

‘All icons on the desktop changed to icon and I cannot open anything’. I assume this is the icon of the windows photo viewer?

I think that what’s happened is that you used ‘open with’ on a shortened. You can check by going to control panel > programs > associate a file type or Protocol with a scroll of program LNK partner should say unknown. I suspect now is said however: Photo Viewer.

If so, there are two ways, this can be fixed. The easy way requires editing the registry but then you want to go this route.

1. click on Start Menu, type regedit in start search and press ENTER. Right click on regedit search results and run it as an administrator.

2. navigate to the following registry branch:

NtVersion ntVersionExplorerFileExts [ext]

Replace the [ext] with the real extension of the file you want to restore the file type association to return to the original Windows 7 by default (probably .lnk). If you unsure, simply browse through all the Sub-touche under FileExts.

3. delete the subkey named UserChoice.

4. exit the registry editor.

The second method is a little more work, can’t fix it, but does not involve the registry.

Since the default action is caused by the user (as it was accidental) choice, you can be able to restore everything simply by creating a new user account. See if the icons to return to their natural state, then knit. If so, just move all your files and folders and delete the old account. If you use Outlook, you also need to reset where it looks for files of Outlook, but it can be automatic (do not try to start Outlook until what everything is copied on the property). If you use this method, remember to copy the hidden appdata folder. Just show all before you begin the copy.

Display of Windows Vista, the icons and all THE GRAPHICS suddenly pixelated, appear low quality at the highest resolution and colors

Please help, out of nowhere on my screen — background, all icons, all graphics (including the Explorer and other programs) have become rough and pixelated and seem very low qualty even if my display is set to the highest resolution management settings and color. I’ve not been able to find a way to restore and have no idea why it is doing this in the first place. It’s really bothering me, it’s hard to read (text appears fuzzy and broken up, not smooth and sharp, icons have white or another pixelation around them and do not have the ‘look of glass’.) I was wondering if one of the old games my children changed my settings somewhere but I’ve lived every control panel I find and have not been able to correct the problem. Even the buttons (back, forward, refresh, etc.) in Explorer have bad pixelation. That’s happened? Help! Thank you

I would also update the drivers, firmware or software for your monitor at the same time. Also, if you have another monitor, swap them to see if the problem goes away or moves — then we can pretty much reduce the question to the screen and not the video card (and if the updated drivers do not resolve this problem, then it’s a hardware problem and you can either take a workshop of computer service repair or simply a replacement of purchase screen.)

I hope this helps.

Windows XP home — icons arranged in order alphabetical Z — A

Hi, I have no idea why my computer started to do this, but now all my MS explore windows arange al icons in them first with the shortcuts folders Z — A, then Z — A files, although if I arrange me by type, file extensions are A — Z, but the file names are Z — A in their breast.

If I click on «organize by type», for example, once again, it’s always a — Z on everything except the file extensions are now Z — A too.

The same thing in all my ‘open’ and ‘save’ dialog boxes. Microsoft will not give free assistance because he told me to go check with the manufacturer of my computer (I have a Toshiba Equium MX40).

I tried messing around with a case until he is almost back to normal and to «apply the settings to all folders», but the parameters do not change on all folders and sooner or later, this issue will return to the messed up order. All apply to all folders seems to do is link pairs of files randomly so that changes to one affect the other, which is annoying when he connects things like ‘my images’ in ‘my computer’ so if I do 1 miniatures, they are two thumbnails.

Is it possible to stop it so weird quality? I would rather not reinstall windows. My microsoft office is too weird, but I’ll post that elsewhere.

First of all, it certainly isn’t a problem of laptop but deliver only Microsoft Windows.

Hi JimGoode,

Unfortunately, the screenshots are not available in the post.

Given that the question does not appear in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a «clean boot». A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
