find the path and filename of one of the executables that doesn't work, usually right click properties will tell you the path and name

then open a cmd prompt with Start / run / cmd

when the cmd prompt opens
cd path_of_executable
nameofprogram.exe

then see if it spits out a message

so for a program istalled in C:\program files\some\program.exe
you'd do

cmd
cd "C:\program files\some"
program.exe

use quotes if there are spaces in the directory name as i have.


this will at least tell you if its saying anything, rather than just quitting with no message.

Its possible the file associations for exe or such are broken, but then pain shouldnt run either, all i can think of is an exe attaching virus thats attaching itself to programs that aren't protected by windows file protection ( which should replace the bad files with good ones after an infection ) and since the user installed programs aren't protected in this way, they can be infected easily.

but its hard to say, might be something completely different
