battlestar...one thing that u could explain is that you register file type every time the program is run!!!


is that how it should be?

i mean once you install such a program and run it, the file type will be registered and then whenever you run it again you will be registering file type again and again.....right?

nope, you have to register one time; the example I gave you is just an example to show how it can be done.

one time only becuz it writes to your registry and will exist until you remove it or reinstall new OS:D if you want to know if it has been registered, just try to read that key if that key existed in your registry that mean you dont have to register it again.

ok good..
