File association problem


I have Works 8.5 installed which needs a fix available from Microsoft.
The fix is KB*******.msp.

This file extension has associated itself to a Serif Program
installed.

I have tried to change the program to open file but no suitable program
is available in recommended list.

I think I need Windows Installer which is somewhere in Vista so how do
I find it?

Thank you Jane C.

File association changed.

Works 8.5 fix applied. Program works OK.

Brilliant.
