I accidently made a DLL file to be opened with a program now all DLL files
show an icon for this program. Will this affect the operation of these files
and if so how can I remove this association?
I am using Vista Ultimate
Thank you.

Hi Pshoe,

The .DLL file extension is set to "Unknown application" as the current
default by default in Vista. This mean that it is associated to nothing.
You can fix your problem by unassociating the .DLL file extension. This
tutorial will show you how.

Hi brink,
Eample:
I have a program "Audacity" and a DLL file which when I clicked on its
properties there is a line that says open with and then a button beside it
that says CHANGE, I accidently changed it to open with "Audacity" and it was
checked to always use the selected program to ope this kind of file.
Now all DLL files on my computer have the"Audacity" logo.
The way I understand it the software you recomended only unassociates the
DLL extension from the file and not the program that opens it. Is there some
way to accomplish this?
Thank you,
pshoe
