Hi, I'm trying to add txt-file to the new-file menu but I can't get it to work. I've made a reg file containing this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt\ShellNew]
"NullFile"=""

Any idea what I'm missing?

Thanx :)

It should be there by default.

Here's the full .txt key:

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt]
@="txtfile"
"PerceivedType"="text"
"Content Type"="text/plain"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt\PersistentHandler]
@="{5e941d80-bf96-11cd-b579-08002b30bfeb}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt\ShellNew]
"NullFile"=""

Thanx a lot - it's working :)

The only weird thing is it now opens in notepad and not editplus. Is that a thing I should change in the key you gave me or some place else?

Right click on any text file, select 'Open with...', Find edit plus in the list of programs offered. If it's not listed, then click browse and navigate to where edit plus resides. Make sure that 'Always use the selected program...' is checked. Click ok. That should make Edit Plus the default program for text files.
