Since installing Registry Mechanic a couple of months ago (which seems to find between 15 and 60 "Problems" each time I use it) I have found that upon hitting "Programs", many of the icons are greyed out (i.e. the recognised icon does not appear, but instead a miniscule icon like a Page, with 2 to 6 dots/spots in the lower half shows. In cases where files show this anomaly, I cannot open them but instead am asked to "Choose a program to open" them. Is there any advice please??
