Anyone who knows even a little bit about the Windows Operating System knows just how fragile and delicate it can be. Messing with even the smallest of system files or tinkering around with even the most significant of registry keys can result in important system functions and features going haywire and even ceasing to work altogether. This is the case with all versions of the Windows OS, including Windows 11. There is a folder under C:\Windows\Users named AppData. The AppData folder basically contains all stored data for installed programs and applications, as well as configured settings and preferences for each user who has an account on the computer in question.
Issues addressed in this tutorial:
this file does not have an app associated with it
this file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action windows 7
this file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action windows 11 taskbar
this file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action windows 11
this file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action windows 10
Windows 11 might be a great operating system, but it also has some of the same problems that its predecessors had. Users reported This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action error message on Windows 11 while trying to run certain applications, so let’s see how to fix this problem.
The AppData folder does not necessarily contain any “system” files. However, editing or changing the AppData folder in any way – even copying it (copying, not moving) – to another location can lead to a horde of different problems. One of the most common problems that can be brought about by messing with the AppData folder and its contents is one where the Customize… button for Windows 11’s Notification Area (which can be navigated to by right-clicking on an empty space in the Windows 11 taskbar and clicking on Properties) stops working altogether.
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 11 operating system (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education) from all supported hardware manufactures, like Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Huawei and Samsung.
