Wix File Association with standard Windows File

由 巧了我就是萌 提交于 2019-12-10 11:28:05
问题 I'm working on a Wix project. I need to associate a new file extension. In itself, appears simple. The issue is I want to associate a new extension as a type of text file that can be open with standard Windows NotePad.exe. The issue/concern I have is I don't want to copy My XP version of Notepad and have it installed within the end-user's System32 and overwrite their Notepad for XP, Vista, Windows7, etc which should already be there. How should I properly reference this association. FINAL

To clarify Lets say that I have an application called FooEdit, that edits .foo files. .foo files have the mime type of text/plain . Here is

问题 A question is about Wix and setting the icon of an advertised shortcut: If your installer contains a manual, or document in say .pdf format and you want to create a shortcut to the PDF file. Is it possible to use an icon for the shortcut based on the systems file associations? e.g. User has Adobe reader, the shortcut gets adobe pdf icon. User has Foxit/Other reader, the shortcut gets that program icon instead. etc. 回答1: As far as I understand the installer magic, this is not possible. This

问题 My .Net Windows Forms application generates a PDF report, which I want to show to the user. Instead of just assuming the client PC has a PDF viewer installed and blindly throwing the PDF at the Operating System to open, is there a way to check against the list of file associations on the client beforehand, then show a " you need a PDF viewer application installed - here's a couple of suggestions.. " dialog if PDF isn't a registered type? I've found a lot of questions and answers about

Windows: establish file association to batch file

由 有些话、适合烂在心里 提交于 2019-12-07 06:18:10
问题 I created a custom file extension I would associate to a batch script. I used ASSOC .myext=MY.FILETYPE FTYPE MY.FILETYPE=cmd /c "C:\Path\of\my\batch.bat" %1 %* by now the batch file "C:\Path\of\my\batch.bat" is a simple one-liner echo %1 And roughly works: double clicking a .myext file pops up a cmd shell echoing the file path. But a problem arises when the .myext file is in a path containing spaces: the echoed filepath is truncated to the space. Double quoting the %1 in the FTYPE statement

问题 When I was working with file association in a .NET application I hadn't had found a way to set it without UAC popping up a confirmation dialog. Today, when I opened uTorrent and looked up for file association, I've found that you can enable (writing to registry) without any confirmation from the UAC. How is that possible? uTorrent is not running as an admin. Edit: Well, I have just discovered with Process Monitor (Sysinternals) that what uTorrent.exe does is to create a few keys ( uTorrent
