Hi. First of all - thank you for your amazing code editor, simply amazing.
Second - regarding this opening files, I did some research now on my comp and this is what I found: 1. It's not about registered file types. Not everything of it is, I mean. It is more about being admin or not, and the damn security model of Windows 7. 2. I tried editing the registry (for %1), installed 4.5.7 - nothing helped. 3. What I found, was the following: I usually run PsPad from a shortcut on my taskbar, and I marked it there to always run with admin rights. Yes, when then I run it, it always gives me that notification if I agree that this program will make changes to this computer, and I say yes. The reason for that is that I did some my customizations for PsPad, adding scripts, and without admin rights the scripts wouldn't work, wouldn't be allowed to write. But then I pay attention, that when I try to open a file from Windows Explorer into PsPad by double-clicking on it, it would do nothing. Same happens, when I drag the file from Windows Explorer to PsPad - it doesn't open it. Choosing in the context menu PsPad doesn't work, either, even for simple txt files. I registered the file type several times: in highlighters, in registered types in Program settings, in Windows file type association, in Windows context menu "choose default program" - the results are the same. When I copy the full file path to the clipboard and then open the file in PsPad File > Open, it opens it. And when I choose the file inside the File Explorer in PsPad, it opens it, too, and knows how to highlight the contents. And now I just double-clicked in Windows Explorer, when PsPad was closed - and it opened together with the file! I dragged another file from Windows Explorer - and it opened it, too! Then I thought, that it got something to do with the admin rights and I checked it: indeed, the scripts didn't work, couldn't write. When I reopened PsPad with that same taskbar shortcut, it got back to allowing scripts and not opening the files. So what I guess is happening is: when PsPad is open with admin rights, it doesn't open the files "from the outside". But what can I do if I do need my scripts to run? Could you please resolve it? Thank you very much! Olga. -- <http://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,57643,58657> PSPad freeware editor http://www.pspad.com
