We did not forget to investigate on this problem. The fact is that our installer (InnoSetup configured using a very simple script of our own) does not add entries to the registry of MSWindows.
That is, to my knowledge, it is *not* our installer which added: --- My Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\xxe.exe\shell\open\command (default) == "C:\Program Files\XMLmind_XML_Editor\xxe.exe" "%1" --- Otherwise, it would have been extremely simple to change this into: --- My Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\xxe.exe\shell\open\command (default) == "C:\Program Files\XMLmind_XML_Editor\bin\xxe.exe" "%1" --- Ken Doran wrote: > This bug still exists in V2.11 SE. > > > Hussein Shafie wrote: >>leslie.chapman at teradyne.com wrote: >> >>>I just installed the latest XMLmind XML Editor Standard Edition V2.10 >>>and think I have found a bug in the way that the registry is set up. >>> This bug effectively disables the Windows "Open With" capability for XXE. >>> >>>I was able to reproduce this error on 2 PCs. >>>Both PCs were Dell Latitude D600 Laptops running Windows XP SP2 - the >>>PCs were upgraded from XMLmind Editor Standard Edition V2.08 P1 (yes, we >>>did uninstall before upgrading). >>> >>>After the install of V2.10 this registry key is set: >>>My Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\xxe.exe\shell\open\command >>>(default) == "C:\Program Files\XMLmind_XML_Editor\xxe.exe" "%1" >>> >>> >>>In order for the Windows "Open With" option to work the value of default >>>must be the correct path to xxe.exe, which is: >>>"C:\Program Files\XMLmind_XML_Editor\bin\xxe.exe" "%1" >>> >>>Once bin is inserted into the key "Open With" functions properly >>> >> >>Thanks for reporting this bug. It should be fixed in next release.
