Since this is on Windows, it may be interesting to take a look at. Can you file a bug at http://new.crbug.com ? >> He just needs to learn how to create an application shortcut.

The easiest fix is by editing the registry entry. I made it do a websearch as an example but this is obviously useless as-is. The important part is the type\shell\open\command\@ (default) registry value, by default it uses «-- "%1"». I just changed this part to use --app and a prebacked url instead. You need to replace %USERPROFILE% by your user profile path. --- CUT HERE --- Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.foo] @="foo_auto_file" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo_auto_file] @="Web Search" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo_auto_file\shell] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo_auto_file\shell\open] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\foo_auto_file\shell\open\command] @="\"%USERPROFILE%\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe\" --app \"http://www.google.com/search?q=%1\""; I don't think Google Chrome should be blamed by someone hooking up weird file association like this. :) M-A --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Chromium Developers mailing list: chromium-dev@googlegroups.com View archives, change email options, or unsubscribe: http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
