When I am logged-in in a session as an administrator, the BAT file on
the Desktop, and I double-click on it, it does not work.
However, if instead of double-clicking on the BAT file, I enter the
Explorer and I run the BAT file as administrator, then something seems
to start working. Excellent!
When you say to double-escape the percent signs, do you mean that in
my BAT file I should write...
FTYPE python.file="C:\Python26\python.exe" "%%1" %%*
and the inverted commas around %%*, are they not necessary?
