Registering File Extensions Unattended

[war59312]

@war59312, it would help if you can convert that .reg file to .cmd or at least make it path independant

Hey,

All right, fixed.

Yeah, a bit late.

Take Care,

Hello Men,

I am trying to change the default icon for "txtfile", at first it doesn´t change the icon, then i reinitiate and it take effect. There any way to change the icon without reinitiate?

Here is my CMD:

@echo off

cmdow @ /HID

REG ADD "HKLM\Software\Classes\txtfile\DefaultIcon" /VE /D "\"%PROGRAMFILES%\TextPad 4\MainIcon.ico\",0" /F

Exit

that's probably because you need to rebuild windows icon cache.

try to run the .cmd at T-13 to see if it helps

Thanks SiMoNsAyS

WHAT ABOUT Foxit pdf extension?

If this doesn't work for you, try:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.pdf]
@="FoxitReader.Document"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\FoxitReader.Document]
"BrowseInPlace"="1"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf]
"Application"=-
"Progid"="FoxitReader.Document"

PS - I tried this having Adobe Reader installed first and it worked

Here you have:

REG ADD "HKCR\.avi" /VE /D "VlcFile" /F

REG ADD "HKCR\.vob" /VE /D "VlcFile" /F

REG ADD "HKCR\.XXX" /VE /D "VlcFile" /F

REG ADD "HKCR\VlcFile\DefaultIcon" /VE /D "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Programs\VLC\vlc.exe,0" /F

REG ADD "HKCR\VlcFile\shell\Open"

REG ADD "HKCR\VlcFile\shell\Open\command" /VE /D "\"%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Programs\VLC\vlc.exe\" \"%%L\"" /F

Just replace XXX for the extension you want to associate VLC to.

For a .reg file see here:

Videolan forum 1

and

How can I get wordpad to open all NFO files?

How can I get VLC to open all video files?

How can I get WMP to open all audio files?

My try with NFO - it opens notepad, but then not the file! (batch file)

REG ADD "HKCR\.nfo" /VE /D "Notepad.nfo" /F
REG ADD "HKCR\notepad.nfo" /VE /D "Nfo Document" /F
REG ADD "HKCR\notepad.nfo\DefaultIcon" /VE /D "\"notepad.exe\",1" /F
REG ADD "HKCR\notepad.nfo\shell\open\command" /VE /D "\"notepad.exe"" /F
REG ADD "HKCR\notepad.nfo\shell\open\ddeexec" /VE /D "%1" /F
REG ADD "HKCR\notepad.nfo\shell\open\ddeexec\application" /VE /D "notepad" /F
REG ADD "HKCR\notepad.nfo\shell\open\ddeexec\topic" /VE /D "System" /F
REG ADD "HKCR\notepad.nfo\shell\print\command" /VE /D "\"notepad.exe" -s -p \"%%1\"" /F
REG ADD "HKCR\notepad.nfo\shell\printto\command" /VE /D "\"notepad.exe" -s -pt \"%%1\" \"%%2\" \"%%3\" \"%%4\"" /F

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VlcFile\shell\Open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VlcFile\shell\Open\command]
@="C:\\Appz\\VLC\\vlc.exe,0" \"%L\""

Thanking you for your time!

Why go to all that bother for your .nfo extension, just use the simple:

FTYPE NFO.Document=notepad.exe "%1"

or the even simpler:

ASSOC .nfo=txtfile
