PC thinks Adobe Reader is used to open EXE - Win 7

[Rediranch]

Hi,

While using PKZIP for Windows, I hit some key sequence or click sequence that told my system that Adobe Reader is the default program to open EXE files. You can see this would cause a problem .

I searched the web on how to setup which program would be used to execute programs, but none of them seem to guide me to find where this information is at.

I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium.

I have had to uninstall Adobe Reader, but anytime I reinstall it, I can't do anything that requires Windows to execute an EXE file - this includes some Windows functions that go execute an EXE if you click on them.

Any help is appreciated.
