Get ShellExecuteEx failed; code 1155, No application is associated with the specified file for this operation - Windows 7

Seems I am only getting this error with only one program:

ShellExecuteEx failed; code 1155,

No application is associated with the specified file for this operation

It is actually with Spotify, if that matters.

I have uninstalled and re-installed and it will work just fine until I reboot then this error reappears and I have to do all over again.

I have run malwarebytes for malware and Mcafee security suite but still get same error.

Anyone able to help?

    It matters a great deal because it is a Spotify problem, not a Windows problem, and the Spotify FAQs probably have a solution. Alternatively Google will give you several useful hints with this search string:

    spotify No application is associated with the specified file for this operation
