I cannot open .docx and xlsx files.
The files extensions you have listed, .docx and .xlsx, are files that have been created using the Microsoft Office 2007 or 2010 suite of programs. Specifically .docx is a Microsoft Word document, and .xlsx is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. You will have to have either of the Microsoft Office programs mentioned, or you can also use the Open Office suite of programs. This is a free program that you can download at the following website:

Genuine validation
you need a valid COA(certificate of authenticity). means you need a valid product key for your operating system. Once you have it, it will solve your problem.

Wave on master volume keeps decreasing on its own
I have nver come accross a setting that will lock the volume to a set level before, but here are a couple of possibilities that you may want to investigate for the cause.
- Not all programs use the master volume control, so do, but most adjust the sound by the wav output. Put the mixer onto the desktop, open things like winamp, media player etc and adjust the volume controls on those to see what is doing what.
- If you have a multimedia keyboard with a volume control on it, make sure when your typing it's not adjusting the volume at the same time. Again, put the mixer on the desktop out of the way and type as you would normally. It could even be just the vibrations from typing setting it off.
See how you go and post back your results

How do I fix appompat.txt?
This file is not a problem, it is a file which gives the error you had with Iexplorer. What you need to do is scan your system as you may well have a virus especially as XP is now not supported any more by Microsoft!! You could try a reset of explorer, may help.
Control Panel - Internet Options - Advanced - Rest button and follow the prompts.

Delete cortana delete all types of Google? Please?
Hiya. Are you actually using a Windows XP PC, or are you the inside of Master Chief's head? :p
- Do you mean Google as in the internet browser?
- Do you mean Cortana as in the digital assistant? Because Cortana doesn't run on Windows XP, in fact it's not out for home computers yet at all, so you may have some sort of virus called Cortana on your computer - if so, do you have a virus/malware scanning program on your computer?
