Every once in awhile you'll run into the program where Windows won't let you automatically open a file, and you can't figure out how to do it yourself. 'Windows cannot open this file' is, sometimes, more serious than it may seem. The two choices you're given are 'Use the web to look for the correct program' and 'Select a program from the list of installed programs'. The most effective solution, however, is to use Smart File Advisor. This tool searches the problems and options to deal with this Windows error online, making it easier for you to find the appropriate solution, since usually neither of the two options provided by Windows will be fruitful. It's also a useful application for updating your programs, since it will help you find the latest versions of each application online.
