I am not sure that it still works in Windows 10. I have used Irfanview for many years, and it gets carried over as I up grade the OS, so sometimes I don't know if things change in the new version since it uses the old settings. -- 2017: The year we learn to play the great game of Euchre |

Still have to check though. I have run into association problems. Last problem was between Money Dance and Quicken. KenW |

I have a my CorelDraw PHOTO-Paint editor set for "Open" default action for images, but wanted to add a new action "View" for IrfanView. This was a simple process in Windows XP and earlier but because a frustrating delve into the registry now, since images are a "special" file and editing the entry in HCR\file-extension won't work. Here is my reg file for 32-bit Irfanview...just edit path if you are using 64-bit Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;; IrtfanViewViewAction.reg [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\image\she ll\view] @="&View" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\image\she ll\view\command] @="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\IrfanView\\i_view32.exe\" \"%1\"" -- Take care, Jonathan ------------------- LITTLE WORKS STUDIO http://www.LittleWorksStudio.com |

Why not do it from Default Apps? Is this difficult with old people? Windows 10 has ability to set default Apps but some of you don't seem to know about it. -- With over 500 million devices now running Windows 10, customer satisfaction is higher than any previous version of windows. |
