Gregg OH1 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 When I double click or try to merge my CCleaner reg backups I get a pop up saying windows cannot find command.exe which is needed to open registration files. Running Win2000pro service pack4. I ran spybot,avg,anti rootkit,etc, nothing found. Everything else seems O.K. Uninstalled,reinstalled CCleaner, created new backup and cannot merge it either! Thanks 4 any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks 4 any help! Just a few of questions. Are you saying that you are trying to merge the multiple backups into one backup? or Are you trying to merge back the backup that you just made? If so, why? Is something not working after your scan and clean up? And if something isn't working after the scan, what? Good Luck!

Moderators hazelnut Posted December 24, 2007 Moderators Share Posted December 24, 2007 Make sure your backups have .reg after them. Your .reg file association may be broken, if so the fix can be obtained from here http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm Look for the reg file association fix. Support contact https://support.ccleaner.com/s/contact-form?language=en_US&form=general or support@ccleaner.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b_grove Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I'm having similar problems merging my CCleaner backup registry. I downloaded CCleaner, ran the Issues fix and saved the backup as "cc_20080106_2054.reg" in My Documents. But when I try to merge the back up, I get the error message "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options control panel". I went to the link to get the reg file association fix but I got the same error message when I try to open the file"xp_regfile.reg" file. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDPower Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I went to the link to get the reg file association fix but I got the same error message when I try to open the file"xp_regfile.reg" file. Are you using XP? If so try this: Click Start>Run, type in regedit and enter. This will open the registry editor where you can click File>Import to import the reg association fix.
