ante0 Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Hi, anyone here good when it comes to Regedit? I'm trying to add a program I made to open Gif Images by default. well, I'm going to add a menu to rightclick, but it doesn't want to display -.- HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\giffile\shell\Gif Viewer\command @="D:\Programs\GifViewer\GifViewer.exe""%1" That should add a menu, but it doesn't... Is there any limit on menus in rightclick? Cause Photoshop adds a few too, so thought that might overwrite it... Well, if anyone has any ideas, lmk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ufo-Pu55y Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Maybe you could go the simple way ?Check out the folder options > file typesIt lists all extensions and you can define for (nearly) everyone, which app opens itby default... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photoshop still opens them.+ I used File associations and added Gif viewer to shell.But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with giffile in registry, cause no Gifviewer entry was added.

starzboy Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 try thisHKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\giffile\shell\Gif Viewer\command@="D:\\Programs\\GifViewer\\GifViewer.exe""%1"and check if path is valid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante0 Posted October 19, 2007 Author Share Posted October 19, 2007 Yea, still don't work, and path is valid. Anyway, if it would be invalid "Gif Viewer" should still appear in the menu, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syk071c Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 (edited) there is usually HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\giffile\shell\open\command & HKCR\shell\open\command..even search for photoshop.exe in the registry should find how it is doing it..
