I’m not sure how it happened, but whenever I click a link in a program such as “check for updates”, where it would usually open my web browser or something similar, it instead opens up the “print” window, as if I just asked it to print a document. It’s not specific to any one program, I’ve tried a few different ones with the same results. How would I fix this? It’s mildly annoying. ---

> [@ProgRocker](#): > > Sounds like program access and defaults got messed up. Have you rebooted yes i did a couple times. I didn’t really notice until i was removing some old programs i never use any more and was going to run CC cleaner. I was going to update it before i ran it and that brought it to my attention. I’ve been looking through the file associations settings but still haven’t found anything. blah ---

Force it to reinstall internet explorer. That should fix the associations. ---
