I had purchased a laptop yesterday with Windows 8.1 installed. I found that my D is DVD RW while C, E and F are local drives. However I need D as a local drive. Hence I went to control panel > Administrative Tools>Disk Management and made I as DVD RW drive and renamed F as D.

But then I started receiving pop-ups as

" I:/

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 Program control panel."

Can anyone give me the solution in detail to fix this problem?
