This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action

Wired... Since some days i'm not able to use the "run with" command within my windows 8(.1). I always fot the error message:

This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel.

 or in german

Der Datei ist kein Programm zum Ausführen dieser Aktion zugeordnet. Installieren Sie ein entsprechendes Programm, oder erstellen Sie in der Systemsteuerung unter "Standardprogramme" eine Zuordnung wenn bereits ein Programm installiert ist.

After a longer search i finally found a working solution [1]. After importing the following registry entries the error was gone.
