| Guest | Game Explorer stopped working! My Vista Game Explorer has stopped working. When I d-click on a game in there now, I get the following error: "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Set Associations control panel" This happens for installed games and Windows Vista ones. I have Ultimate on a clean-install. Also, where is Texas Hold 'Em?? Thanks |

| Guest | Re: Game Explorer stopped working! Jake, did you do a registry tweak or use a 3rd party tweak to remove the shortcut arrow overlays on desktop icons? If you removed the "IsShortcut" key, then that is why your games links no longer work in Game Explorer. -- Jane, not plain 64 bit enabled :-)Batteries not included.
