How To Remove PHP Extension File Association With Internet Explorer

When I select a PHP file to open it is redirected to be downloaded and opened (or I can choose to save) in Internet Explorer.  I need to test the file in different browsers.  How can I remove this automatic association?
I've tried selecting a php file from Windows Explorer and selecting a different browser with no success.  I recently bought a new computer with Windows 8.  It's a big jump from my old one which used XP where there was no problem opening files with
a php extension.
Pat

it sounds like you have a file association for .php, and, that you don't want to have one, so the original default behaviour would instead be preferable?

  • Quicktime grabs Vista file associations in Internet Explorer (TIFF etc.)

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with Quicktime 7.6 and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows Vista - maybe someone here knows a fix? I've tried everything I could think of ... to no avail... Many thanks in advance for any hints!
    Trouble is:
    After installing iTunes 8.1.1 including QuickTime, whenever opening a TIF image in Internet Explorer 8, QuickTime will display it. I don't want that, I need to set a different application to open TIF files or to have Internet Explorer ask me whether I want the file displayed or download it.
    This is extremely annoying, since our HTTP scan server (HP) sends its files as TIF directly to the browser, so there is now link to the file to right-click on and chose "save as". Before installing iTunes/QuickTime, Internet Explorer asked me where I wanted to have the file saved - now it just displays the image using the QuickTime plugin and I can't save it anymore.
    I tried to right-click the image in the QuickTime display, it tells me I would need to buy QT Pro to save a copy.
    I opened QuickTime's options and disabled TIF and TIFF both in file types and in MIME types.
    Result: nothing; still IE8 displays TIF with QuickTime.
    I right-clicked on a TIF file on the harddisk, chose properties and changed the program with which to open the file (first Acrobat, than tried Windows image viewer, then Photoshop...).
    Result: nothing; still IE8 displays TIF with QuickTime. (When I open a TIF from a folder on the harddisk, Vista opens it in the program I specified - but any TIF within IE8 is still displayed with QuickTime).
    I opened Vista's control panel and set the standards for file type TIF/TIFF to a different programm.
    Result: no change, within IE8 any TIF image is still displayed using the QT plugin.
    I used Internet Explorer's Add-On settings to disable the QuickTime plugin.
    Result: any TIF image is displayed as a red X, it doesn't ask me what to do with it or where to save it.
    What can I do?
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks in advance!
    Best wishes
    Frank

    I used this link for tiff http://www.nrl.navy.mil/content.php?P=IMAGES
    QT was opening the tiff files. When going into the QT control panel Browser>Mime settings>Images-Still image files I was able to uncheck tiff, which held. I was also able to uncheck all the file types under File Types tab(Images-Still image files) in the QT control panel. However the preference would not hold. Went into Start>Set Program Access and Defaults that also was of no help.
    The only way I was able to get QT to release the tiff's from the website I posted was to go into the Folder Options control panel for File Types and change the tif & tiff from QT picture viewer to windows picture and fax viewer.
    So not sure why the QT control panel will not respond, there are other file types in the Folder options control panel on this computer other than tiff's that are still associated to QT, but didn't try changing them, perhaps that needs to be done?
    Good post I didn't realize this before reading your post, if I come across anything further I'll post back.

  • How to remove Open/Save prompt when using Internet Explorer

    Acrobat XI Pro was deployed with custom MST that had When using Internet Explorer prompt for Open/Save.  Is there a hack that will disable this prompt without having to re-install Acrobat XI Pro?

    An engineer gave me a possible solution, but I don't have permission on my machine to test it. You can try the following:
    -- snip --
    This is because of not having necessary permissions to edit the registry. To obtain the permission, follow following steps:
    Right click on “HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroPDF.FDF.1” and click permissions.
    On permissions dialog, click Advanced.
    In the new dialog, select Owner tab and make current user as owner.
    Click Apply and close the dialog.
    Close the permission dialog.
    Try editing the registry as suggested.

    Hi,
    If you are using Windows Media Player to run these files by default, the problem occurs because the Windows Media Player library database has become
    corrupted.
    First, you may check if it is run by Windows Media Player by default. If not, please change it:
    Change which programs Windows uses by default
    To resolve this problem, clear the Windows Media Player database. To do this, follow these steps:
    1. Exit Windows Media Player.
    2. Click Start, click Run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player, and then click OK.
    3. Select all the files in the folder, and then click Delete on the File menu.
    Note: You do not have to delete the folders that are in this folder.
     4. Restart Windows Media Player.
    Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.
    If this does not resolve the problem, clear the Windows Media Player database cache files. To do this, follow these steps:
       1. Exit Windows Media Player.
       2. Click Start, click Run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft, and then click OK.
       3. Select the Media Player folder, and then click Delete on the File menu.
       4. Restart Windows Media Player.

  • How to remove thousands of file called with the same name with just one number most of the other

    I've created this thousands of file with a python script, and i've tried to delete all of them using another python script which uses while command and it does work but it's really too slow and my finder crashes. I can't delete all of them manually because it would take forever and from the terminal i don't know how to delete them. The files haven't got an extension and are in my user directory, so please if somebody knows something to do tell me. (sorry for my english)

    Yes there is a way. Post back with the following information:
    1. With respect to your home directory, what is the exact folder that the files are in (ie, are they in the Documents folder, or in a subfolder within the Documents folder). What are the exact names (caps included) of these directories?
    2. What is the exact name scheme of the files? You mentioned they are incremented numerically, but what are the rest of the files' names (again, capitalization is important)?
    With this information, there are several ways to approach the problem, which will basically be four steps to ensure you do not inadvertently remove files you wish to keep:
    1. Create a new folder to temporarily house the files.
    2. Issue a command to target the files by name and move them into a separate folder.
    3. Check the old parent folder to ensure nothing is missing, and optionally check the names of the moved items.
    4. Finally delete the contents of the temporary folder, along with the folder itself.
    The specifics of these steps will depend on the names of the files and the folder that they are in, so provide as much information as you can about that, and we can work through the steps.

  • Getting stylesheets to work in header.php and files associated with it

    Let's say I created a header.php file in my includes folder.  And I include it in my index.php file in the site root directory.
    Then in the header.php file, I have a link to the style sheet. 
    The issue I've always found is that you can't get the header.php file to apply the stylesheet.
    I can get it to work using global links, however I don't want to do that as I'll have to undo them before I upload the site.  (And I forget....)
    So anyways, I came up with this code today in an attempt to overcome this.  Here is my header file so far:
    "; } else           echo ""; ?>  
    So here is what it is doing:
    1. It is creating a variable called $directory which is equal to the current directory.
    2. Then it is creating another variable called $currentFolder which is equal to whether or not the variable $directory contains the word "includes".
    3. Then it says if $currentFolder is NOT false then it has the location of the stylesheet in relation to the header.php file.
    4. Else - if it IS false then the stylesheet is located in a location in relation to files in my root directory.
    This works perfectly fine....in Live view.  Both the header.php and index.php will format the header in live view.  Neither though will format it in Design view.  Which sucks cause I was pretty happy that I came up with this code on my own.
    The reason it isn't working in Design View - I realize now - is because Dreamweaver won't process that script in Design View. 
    Does anyone know of a way to get this script to run in Design View?  Or maybe some suggestions on editing this code to get it to work in Design View?
    Thanks!

    >The issue I've always found is that you can't get the header.php file to apply the stylesheet.
    Right. That's because, and it seems you understand this already, the css file relative location is different from the point of view of the header file, and the parent file. Since the header file is included in the parent at the server, the client then sees the css file in the wrong location.
    The solution is to use Design time style sheets. This will apply the css to the page only in design time - it won't actually insert the css file into the code. So, insert the css reference into the header file from the point of view of the parent - index.html. Then add a design time style sheet. That should work.

  • How to identify files associated with apps?

    Hello all -
       I am considering buying a new Mac mini which would come with Yosemite.  My existing mini (mid 2011, Lion 10.7.5) has a lot of apps I do not wish to migrate, so I think I am stuck with manually reinstalling each of the apps I want on the new computer.  How do I identify the necessary files associated with these apps (preferenes, app support, etc.) so I can copy them over after reinstalling on the new computer?  Is there any way to track what files were installed along with the app when it was first installed?  Anyone familiar with the claim of CleanApp to log all associated files with an installation (at time of install), or any other software that does this?
       Thanks - Randy

    Thanks again Arthur for your response.  I looked at RoaringApps but was not sure if I should enable the real time or just use basic.  Real time seems to require a lot of downloading (and modification?)   What do you recommend - Real TIme or Basic?
    As far as SunnyMenu, it is old but has worked flawlessly through and including Lion 10.7.5.  The only alteration of the system is that it is added as a startup item in my User in System Preferences.  It does not change the GUI, but adds menus (that you can customize) in addition to, rather than changing what System X does.  The Dock will not accomodate nearly as many items and SunnyMenu allows for nested subfolders of menu items.  I find it extremely useful and use it every day. I realize one day it will no longer work, but hope that, as it's pretty simple, that may be a bit further off.  As a rule I don't dabble in System modifiying stuff like maintenance, clean-up, speed-up, "optimization" etc. and just rely on System X.  I do have iStat Menus, but I don't believe that's modifying the System, but only displays information.  RoaringApps seems to indicate it's compatible with everything through Yosemite.  Would you recommend against that as well?  It saved me once when my fan failed but I noticed the iStat temp & rpm display and got it repaired at my Apple Store before I completely toasted my mini.
    Thanks again for your replies, they have been extrmely helpful in understanding how to start planning my move to a new Mac mini with Yosemite!

  • "Error occurred in deployment step 'Retract Solution': The solution does not have a WSP file associated with it." occurs while deploying from Visual studio

    HI,
    I get this error "Error occurred in deployment step 'Retract Solution': The solution does not have a WSP file associated with it. " when deploying my project from visual studio 2010 to
    SharePoint 2010 site. I tried restarting IIS, but it didn't help. This application used to work fine until the server crashed during the deployment process. All the other applications on the same server works fine also. Any ideas how to fix this issue? 
    Thanks in advance,
    AM

    Hi
    AM ,
    Thank you for your posting!
    According to your error message, it says your solution does not have a WSP file associated with it. Take a look at the file system.  After you Right Click -> Deploy Solution on the VS Solution, there
    should be a .wsp file at <Solution Directory>\bin\<debug|release>.
    Also the error can be occurring when the developer try to deploy solutions over pre-existing solutions  with material changed  in the solution.  Go to your Central Administration Site and then
    Operations and then Solution Management.  Make sure that there not already a solution with the same name deployed or installed there.  If there is, remove it and try deploying again.
    And you could look in logs and find if there is a below error in ULS log (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS).
    Thank you for your understanding and support.

  • How to change a startup file association (Connecting doesn't start ITunes)

    I made an error and associated my iPod's connection with my printer control panel. So when I plug in my iPod ... my printer control panel comes up. I'd like to have it bring up ITunes. Does anybody know how I can change the file association so Itunes comes up when I plug in my IPod? Thank you.

    I am answering myself here. I fixed the problem. I went to the folder under program files that held the (Brother) exe file. I zipped the entire folder, then removed the [Brother] file. I turned off ITunes and unplugged the IPod, then plugged the ipod in again. It went right to ITunes. I then "extracted" the [Brother] file to its original location. Tried it again, and the IPod was still associated with Itunes.

  • How to find the Standard Program associated with a Standard IDOC

    Hi,
          I am going work on enhancing the standard IDOC. Any body can suggest how to find a standard pogram associated with a Standard IDOC. And can any body send some exaple code for extending a standard IDOC and to implement the logic in the standard program .....

    Hi,
    For outbound IDoc the program can be found:
    1) For master IDoc via transaction BD60. Here for the message type you can find the function module used to generate the IDoc. Within this function module you can find the user exit where you can code your logic.
    2) For IDocs with message control (output control) we maintain settings for proces code in WE41. This process code will lead to outbound IDoc generation program.
    For Inbound IDoc the program can be found:
    Via WE42 where inbound process and its related inbound function module is maintained.
    In each cases above we can go the function module and find the customer exit where idoc enhancement logic can be coded.
    For extending IDoc look at the following links:
    <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/dc/6b7d6243d711d1893e0000e8323c4f/content.htm">Extending IDoc - SAP help</a>
    It can be summarized as follows:
    Enter transaction WE30 (ALE->Extension-> IDOC types->Maintain Idoc type)
    - Type in your name of the extended IDOC type (usually starting with 'Z') and click on the Basic IDoc type, click the create icon.
    - Click on Create new and enter a description and press enter.
    - Click on ZIDOCTYPE01 and then on the Create icon.
    - Enter ZIDOCTYPE as the segment type, click on Segment Editor.
    - Enter a description for your segment type and create.
    - Enter a description for your segment, enter each field required in your IDoc and press enter to validate.
    - Save and generate, press back
    - To release the segment choose Goto, Release from the menu.
    - Check the box on the line of your segment.
    - Save, back and enter.
    - Your Idoc type structure should be displayed with your new segment.
    - Save and back.
    - To release the Idoc type choose Extras, Release type from the menu and Yes.
    Hope this helps.

  • Unable to open files associated with Adobe Reader - program goes into a loop

    i am unable to open any file associated with adobe reader or adobe pro.  when i double-click the file, adobe reader opens up but it goes into a loop. 
    adobe reader opens, then a progress window opens, as if the file will open but adobe closes and opens again and the same cycle repeats itself until i manually close the program.
    any advice?
    update:
    i can open regular .PDF files when i double-click the icon and i can also open .PDF files when i open adobe reader first and then choose open file.  it's just the .FDF files that are the problem (so far).
    the file in question happens to be an .FDF extension, which is an internet generated form. i attached a screen shot of the screen that pops up, goes away, and pops up again that creates the loop.
    the white out section is the server name where the file was saved to.  but i also get the same symptoms when i am in internet explorer, hit the generate form button.

    hey ankit,
    sorry i didn't see a notification that you replied to this discussion.
    "1. Generate a new PDF and a FDF file. Try opening the same and see if it behaves the same way."
    yes, it does behave the same way, it's just a continuous loop until i have to kill the process.
    "2. Check if you have access to the PDF that is being used by the particular FDF."
    by this do you mean the correct permissions?  if that is what you mean, then yes, the permissions are set correctly.
    "3. If possible, please send me the FDF and the associated PDF that is behaving in this way on your system."
    i really wish i could but the information in the form is sensitive and cannot be sent. 
    as an update though, i reimaged the customer's workstation, installed Adobe Reader 10.1.1 and it worked perfectly (finally).  HOWEVER, after about two weeks the same symptoms returned!

    Good advice, except for the AIC codec part. The native codec for FCP X is ProRes. Use ProRes 422.
