    File type association problem...HELP!

    I just got a problem on my laptop. All the shortcuts on the desktop aren't working anymore. When I try to run any .exe file, windows shows a screen ''Windows cannot open this file''

    Anybody has an idea of my problem?

    Basically the same problem as this one :
