Hi This doesn't solve your issue, but might explain why the rebuild button worked.
Lately I was surprised when trying to make a file association using a registry-file. I thought I should use a HKEY_CURRENT_USER key, but that doesn't work, because when you associate a file-extension using explorer.exe, it's created in your hive file on your harddisk using e.g.: HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-83215431-1484733135-632543435-4352 and then it's copied to HKEY_CURRENT_USER. But what ever you do in HKEY_CURRENT_USER, it isn't copied to your hive file on your harddisk, excep if you use a reg-file to create the association in e.g.: HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-83215431-1484733135-632543435-4352 Strange, but that's how it works using registry in Windows 7. -- <http://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,58110,58370> PSPad freeware editor http://www.pspad.com
