I accidentally installed Google Chrome, which came with an Adobe Flash Player update. I didn't need another browser as I already have Firefox, so I uninstalled Chrome.
However, this seems to have messed up my FTP settings. Before that, I was able to connect to any FTP site via Windows Explorer. However, after I installed and removed Chrome, FTP sites would default to Internet Explorer. The option to open the FTP site in Explorer would not work.
I went to Default Programs > Set Associations, but there FTP is not listed under protocols, and there seems to be no option of adding a new protocol.
I changed the default FTP client back to Windows Explorer by editing the registry, but I now get an "Application not found" error when trying to access FTP sites.
This is a very annoying problem. I tried fully resetting Internet Explorer, but it did not help. Any advice would be appreciated.
