brolli144 Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 I downloaded Utorrent and it changed alot of my other programs so i cant use them. Like my Worldof warcraft game now has a Utorrent icon next to it instead of the Wow symbol. now when i try to open it, it says "unable to load launcer.exe, invalid .torrent file!" How do i change my programs back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 O.oI'm still not sure how people are getting their EXE associations stolen, but uh, check this page to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brolli144 Posted January 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 That site didnt help much because i cant even open things like the system restore or notepad to make any new files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Have you tried ... Safe Mode? It is also likely if this happened to your .exe extensions you are infected with mal/ad/crap-ware. Please download a real trojan / rootkit expunger like prevx.com or rootkit revealer from sysinternals.com and then run in safe mode and clean out the stuff. HiJackThis also has a toolset for removing "problem" entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
