It happens many time when we change the default program of exe with media player, note pad, or any specific program. And it opens all the softwares/ programs with the same software as VLC / Media player / Notepad etc. We need is exe fixer. How to make it? Follow this.
I have two method. The easiest one is download the below registry edit software. This will not run by VLC / scheduled program as it's extention is .reg. It has some command, which will resolve the issue. In some case your antivirus will not allow this, the reason is that it is in .reg extension. In this case you can create your own registry fixer program mentioned below. After downloading below program, just double click on that and press yes when ask for administrator permission. If not worked goto below process.
