I have lost the .exe file extension for one of the user's profiles after cleaning off viruses. When logged in as admin it is there, but not as the user. How can i do a run as on the folder options view? Where does that program reside?
Thank you!
 
What do you mean you lost the extention? Like if a file is called program.exe the user only sees program? Or they can't run any .exe files? You may have the remains of the virus on there affecting them. Create a new user profile for them see what happens.

Thank you! Yes, I meant the ability to run .exe programs. And, yes, turns out there were residual issues from the viruses. Creating a new profile took care of all the problems. Thanks again. :hello:
