Hi,
I'm using WIX to create an application MSI. My application creates
certain custom file types and I need to register it as the program to
open this file extension with. Looking at the WIX tutorial, I added the
following lines to my .wxs file:
<ProgId Id='Extension1' Description='Pack Extension'>
<Extension Id='mypack' ContentType='application/mypack'>
<Verb Id='open' Command='Open' Target='[!FileId]'
Argument='"%1"' />
</Extension>
</ProgId>
I added this ProgId field under the Component with Id='MainExecutable',
which seemed to be the right thing to do. The first time I installed the
MSI and tried to use it to open a file with my extension, it worked
fine. Then I made some changes to the code and rebuilt and reinstalled
the MSI. After that, every time I click on a file with that extension,
it says: "Application not found". But I did install the MSI, so I'm not
sure what I should do? Does this have something to do with the fact that
another MSI was installed earlier that already registered that file
type? I tried to go to the registry and remove all associations for that
file extension, but nothing changed.
I'd appreciate any suggestions anyone has!
Thanks!
