Registry Question: Broken Open Command

[Guest Gruff the Elder]

I scanned my XP Pro sp3 system with MalwareBytes AntiMalware and got the

following hit: "Broken.OpenCommand". The detail indicated a problem with the

registry entry at HKClasses_Root\scrfile\shell\open\command\

 

Under the column heading "Other" MB further indicated:

Bad ("%1" %*) Good ("%1" /S)

 

When I used regedit to look at this key, the value (REG_SZ) is indeed "%1" %*

 

So I infer that MB is saying that the value of this key should be changed to

"1%" /S

 

What does this key do; why is the first value bad; and should I change it to

the second value?

Why you need to play with the registry and MalwareBytes can fix it for you!

let MalwareBytes fix it and run another scan to see if it will be picked

up again.

How nice of you to answer my questions. I suppose you also regularly run

registry cleaners and permit them to delete whatever registry entries they

claim are "bad".

Just after checking what they are and if not sure if they are not orphans

left from old applications I uninstalled or doesn't exist anymore on the

machine!

 

This(scrfile) refer to a screensaver installed and may be fishy one or badly

written/programmed.

Re: Registry Question: Broken Open Command

 

Many Windows screen savers come with an .SCR extension

by default. Usually these will be found in the Windows main

directory. Use caution if you receive a screen saver file

via E-mail. These files can contain executable code and

can be worms or viruses.

 

Note: This file type can become infected and should be

carefully scanned if someone sends you a file with this

extension.

 

MalwareBytes is correct, let it change it.
