Registering File Extensions Unattended

**SiMoNsAyS** · May 31, 2005

.nfo file types are usually bundled with "underground" releases. they're purpose is to be displayed on a command-window b/c they include an ASCII logo better viewed under DOS.

you can try to import the batch file at first post that associates those .nfo files with "type" command and take a look by yourself

It still won't work. I managed to make it start notepad++, then kill it and afterwards, register the file extensions but, it didn't help a thing. If I check the extensions in windows, it shows notepad as a *.txt reader. What should I do?

**oneless** · June 18, 2005

ref. first post , what is doing ?

M Short %PF% Variable

i get an error from command prompt

('M' is not recognized as an internal or external command ...blabla)

it suppose to be a 'REM' there ?

Someone else asked this here, I had assumed it had been changed by SiMoNsAyS, but looking back at his response, I guess he hadn't understood the problem.

In answer to your question though, yes it is supposed to be REM, not M.

thanks @Yzöwl

i love PowerDVD6 for playing DVD's.

but it registers all extension files when i install it,

including here audio and video extensions.

i love bsplayer for divx files and winamp for audio files .

for bsplayer i found in first post , thanks @SiMoNsAyS the moves.

for the winamp has anybody a more complete registry setting

for register audio files unattended ?

**SiMoNsAyS** · June 20, 2005

@oneless, yes, it's supposed to be 'REM'.

%PF% variable is used to transform "C:\Program files" onto "C:\Progra~1".

@oneless, winamp is supposed to register its extensions during setup. btw just change the extension

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.ogg" /VE /D "Winamp.File" /F
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.wav" /VE /D "Winamp.File" /F
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.mp3" /VE /D "Winamp.File" /F
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.???" /VE /D "Winamp.File" /F

I use WMP for all files but Winamp for Playlists.

@Oneless

The Winamp MSI has installation switches for video, audio and playlists.

thanks too @OrcoXP

i already included @Alanoll's MSI WinAmp since 5.0.91

now i have 5.0.92 and i am waiting his 5.0.93 version !

i know of course that winamp make the registering himself.

BUT

at the last installation , i rearranged the apps order in

my WPI_CD and PowerDVD was installed after BSplayer and WInAMP , and WMP10.

and THIS PopwerDVD take ALL_POSSIBLE_EXTENSIONS for him. register all .

i dont try yet to open .gif or. bmp with PopwerDVD, but i think that can

handle that even a .dbf.

i love powerDVD for DVD only , not music , not .avi's, not database files . i use for that MS Access 2000.

i love winamp for music , not for DVDs...

an so on...

this is the reason for my winamp_file_registrations need.

You could also make it look a lot smaller in a batch file

@echo off&setlocal enableextensions

for %%a in (%WampFile%) do reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\%%a /ve /d "Winamp.File" /f

Why not take a snapshot of the changes to the registry and then undo the unwanted ones...

Active Registry Monitor will allow you to make an undo file

**SiMoNsAyS** · June 21, 2005

@Yzöwl, your version has been added too

**Wesmosis** · August 1, 2005

record the changes to the registry on a normal install and save them to a reg file.

then apply that reg file in your ua
