Windows uses Microsoft Office Access to open MDB files.
But, MSO Access does not come with windows pre-installed.
Since MSO Access is part of the Microsoft Office Suite, you will have to buy Microsoft Office 2010 Professional or Professional-Plus(If you are on windows).
If you are on a Mac, you can use MDB/ACCDB Viewer.
lnk files aren't opened by any program. They are processed by windows to open another program or file. They are shortcut files. They don't need a default program
You need to change your Windows Defaults. This option is found in the Control Panel. You can choose which program to open files with by default. It sounds to me like all your files have a Windows Media Player Default setting on.
It uses Microsoft Access to open mdb files.
On Windows, right click the file, select Open With, select Choose Default Program, select Internet Explorer and then select Ok.
The Windows Picture and Fax Viewer is the default Windows program that is used to open picture files. Images viewed there can be zoomed in, rotated, viewed as a slideshow, or printed.
You can open jar files with command prompt, Winrar or java.
If you're using Windows 7: Right-click the zip/rar file and click "open with">"change default program", then select a program. Alternatively you can go to "Control Panel\Programs\Default Programs\Set Associations" to set programs to open certain file types by default.
If the files do not have pictures and Windows cannot open the file, you will need to download a program that is associated with the file. Some files, like PDFs, require a special program to open them.
It should do. ^^^ to expand on this answer.... Assuming you meant what program will open MP3 files - Windows will usually use its own medial player, unless you have another media program (such as Real Player) and tha set the alternative one as the default program... Snakester1962
Windows can only open files if you have the program associated with that file type installed.
default program is an application that opens a file when you double-click it. For example, if you double-click a .TXT file in Windows and it automatically opens in Notepad, then Notepad is the default program for files with a ".txt" extension. If the file opens in Microsoft Word, then Microsoft Word is the default program. Default programs are necessary since many file types can be opened by more than one program. For example, your computer may have over a dozen applications that can open .JPG files. Therefore, theoperating system needs to know which program to open by default when you double-click a JPEG image file. Both Windows and Macintosh computers store a list of default programs for each file extension. These relationships between programs and file extensions are also called "file associations." Both the Windows and Macintosh operating systems allow you to change file associations if you don't like the default program that is associated with a certain file type. For example, if you prefer to play MP3 files in iTunes rather than Windows Media Player, you can change the ".mp3" file association to iTunes. This will set iTunes as the default program for all .MP3 files. Windows 7 has a built-in utility for configuring file associations called "Default Programs." This tool allows you to assign specific programs to one or more file extensions using a simple graphical interface. It also displays what file extensions are associated with each installed application. For more information on using the Windows 7 Default Programs tool, view theFileInfo.com Default Programs Help Article. While Mac OS X does not include a Default Programs tool, you can simply right-click a file and choose "Open With…" to select a different program to open it. If you want to change the default program for a specific file, select the file and choose File → Get Info. Then select a different program in the "Open with:" section of the window. If you want to change the default program for all files with the same extension, press the "Change All…" button
Simple. You install whatever program you use to open them.
