Check my previous comments where I suggest that you download the fileassoc.bat, save it to c: and then from the Start Search text box run c:fileassoc.bat

Comment on Updating Windows 7 by thomson

if someone is looking for an alternative to Wuauclt.exe, should have a look on http://wuinstall.com . it is also a command line tool, but more powerful. therefore i use it in my startup scripts.

it has much more options than the built-in variant, for example filtering updates(in categories or even regular expression). also managing reboots/shutdowns during the windows updates process is possible.

Comment on Disabling the automated Windows Updates forced reboot by thomson

you might have a look on http://wuinstall.com for automate windows update process. it is a command line tool, which controls windows updates. it is possible to automate the reboots between the installation of updates, so that it can be done completely unattended.

Too bad this doesn’t work anymore for Windows 7..

For Windows 7 I use this key:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
“NoInternetOpenWith”=dword:00000001

Comment on Exporting Firewall settings in Windows 7 by George

George — Sun, 29 Jul 2012 14:00:26 +0000

There’s an option to restore default settings from Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Windows Firewall, but I am not sure if there’s way that allows you to restore a customized set.

Comment on Exporting Firewall settings in Windows 7 by Ed Holman

Ed Holman — Sun, 29 Jul 2012 12:26:37 +0000

Exporting them is okay, but reloading export settings would be even better, rather than reviewing the list and manually reconfiguring the firewall. Is there any way to reload settings?

After doing everything in the how-to and comments I am successfully connected between a tablet and my home pc. But the tablet has no internet access. Win 7 and Android 4.1, do I have to bridge connection or somehow enable internet access?

@Kalpesh
depends what you want to do
if you want to share files between your desktop and phone, right click the folders you want to share
got to properties>sharing and set it up to share with yourself
goto run>cmd>ipconfig, and make a note of what your computers local ipv4 address is
Search the app store, or google play for a smb client, and configure it with your computers IP address, username and password.

If you want to control your computer, then use splashtop (there are free alternatives, but it’s worth the price)
