Hi Joe,
if you just right click on any prg file in File Explorer and choose
"Open With" and select Visual FoxPro, that should work

I had an installation of Windows 10 without VFP. In order to easily open
.DBF and .PRG I configured Windows to open them with Notepad. When I
installed VFP I assumed the configuration would be updated.
When the installation completed I discovered that clicking .DBF and ,PRG
files still opened Notepad. With coaching from CoPilot I eventually got
the file types associated with VFP. The issue now is that clicking a .PRG
attempts to run the code rather than opening it for editing. When a .DBF
is clicked VFP errors out because it can't find the .CDX. In both cases
the default is set to C: rather than the folder where the .DBF and .CDX are
located.
CoPilot encouraged a Repair so I ran that. It completed without error and
Version() shows that the Service Packs and Hot Fixes are still in effect .
The bad news is - the behavior has not changed.
Any Counsel?
Thanks in advance,
Joe
