Greetings,
The virus in question has modified registry keys which prevents opening programmes. Now, several viruses do that and you may not have all the same virus.
For once in my lifetime, Symantec has created a useful tool. Mind you, Symantec in line with its principal, created a tool which will not remove the virus but at least resolve the open with problem.
I could give you directives to modify registry entries but that would require time and in some cases be risky.
So after running the tool, all of you must download, install, update and run Malwarebyte.
So here are the steps:
1. Download, unzip and run Godzilla Fix:

2. Download, install, update Malwarebyte and run a FULL (I insist FULL scan)
https://ccm.net/downloads/security-and-maintenance/4621-malwarebytes-anti-malware/
You may be required to reboot during the process.
3. After the scan delete the items found.
Now if none of you comeback to give me some feedback, my spirit will haunt you for eternity and I will cast a spell on your system. I'am serious.
Best regards

I have downloaded and un-zipped Godzilla fix, but a message appears:
Cannot execute C:\Users\Guest\AppData\Local\Temp\Rar$EX02.571\KillGodzilla.exe
And for Malwarebyte, It still goes to "Open With"
But thankyou for the suggestion,

Let's try this:
Download and unzip https://www.winhelponline.com/fileasso/exefix_vista.zip
Then double click on exefix_vista.reg, accepts registration in the registry,
Then restart the computer normally and all files. EXE works!

So I un-zip the file and try to put it in my registry I right click and hit "Merge", and an error pops up.
Here is the error:
Cannot import C:\Users\Guests\Desktop\exefix_vista.reg: Not all data was successfully written to the registry. Some keys are open by the systems or other process.
