hey, something happend to some of my computers folders so that i cant open them. From what i see its because it has the wrong association...i was wondering what program i should select to change the folder back into a folder.
thx

what happens when you try and open them and can you post a screenshot of what has happened?

its treating the folder like a picture

well, if you know roughly when this has happened you can try a system restore if you have any available dates. but before you do it, ill keep finding out any info and ill let you know

It isn't a folder its a file without an extension that is why it is asking you what program to open it with.

What you don't understand is folders don't have a file accosiation to them. It is default within Windows that cannot be changed. Windows Explorer is what is used to view them.

umm, dunno if this will work, but open it with explorer.exe or explorer.scf?
