Embodiment 1

[0051] In order to improve the efficiency of solving problems, the embodiment of the present invention provides a method for opening unknown files, see figure 1 , this embodiment specifically includes:

[0052] 101: Receive a request to open an unknown file;

[0053] An unknown file means that no application in the system can correctly read and open a file of a specific type. The corresponding application is not installed, the file association information in the registry is missing, or there is a problem with the corresponding application, all of which may cause the file to not be opened normally.

[0054] 102: According to the extension of the unknown file, obtain the application corresponding to the extension from the locally stored application list;

[0055]Those skilled in the art can know that file types are usually distinguished by file extensions. For example, file types for storing pictures include bmp, png, jpg, etc., media file types include avi, mpeg, rmvb, etc., ...

Embodiment 2

[0059] In order to improve the efficiency of solving problems, the embodiment of the present invention also provides a method for opening unknown files, see figure 2 , this embodiment specifically includes:

[0060] 201: Receive a request to open an unknown file;

[0061] It should be noted that before this step 201, it also includes a process of judging whether the file is an unknown file, specifically including: judging whether the file has an associated application program, if yes, using the application program to open the file, if not, then the file is an unknown file.

[0062] Those skilled in the art can know that when the user clicks on a file, the system will receive a request to open the file. For files in the system, generally there will be file association information or corresponding application programs in the registry. When associated information or a corresponding application program is triggered, step 202 is triggered.

[0063] In this embodiment, before st...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for opening an unknown file, and belongs to the field of computer software management. The method comprises the following steps of: receiving a request for opening an unknown file; according to the extension of the unknown file, acquiring an application program corresponding to the extension from an application program list stored locally; and opening the unknown file by using the acquired application program. The device comprises a receiving module, an acquisition module and an application module. According to the embodiment of the invention, the unknown file can be opened correctly after a program is installed successfully by analyzing the unknown file and recommending the application program in a targeted way, so that the troubles of a user in searching and finding software when a user needs to open the unknown file are avoided effectively; the professional requirement on the user is low; and efficiency of solving the problem is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer software management, in particular to a method and device for opening unknown files. Background technique [0002] When opening an unknown file, the Windows system will call the system’s default open method program to list the registered application programs for the user to independently read the registered associated information or fail to start the corresponding application program. Select, and provide an entry of "Find the appropriate program on the Web" on its window, so as to retrieve the appropriate program on the network, which can help users to open unknown files to a certain extent. If the user is familiar with the unknown file type, or the corresponding software has been installed in the system, the file can be opened simply by searching and selecting it. For the situation that the corresponding software is not installed, the system can search the network according to the currently unknown files...
