Guest Steve Gage Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 The "open with" option when right clicking on a file has gone missing. I like to use that functionality from time to time, and would like to restore it. Can anyone tell me how? - Steve
Guest John John Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Re: "Open with" in Explorer is gone Kelly's Reg fixes should fix this. http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs_edits/openwithrestore.reg http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs_edits/chooseprogramrestore.reg Kelly's site deals with mostly with Windows XP issues, you shouldn't apply fixes there to Windows 2000 without first doing some research. The above registry fixes also apply to Windows 2000, try them and see if if cures the problem. John Steve Gage wrote: > The "open with" option when right clicking on a file has gone missing.
