I recently upgraded win7 to win10. Some issues happened with ico files types.
Double-click jpg files, it shows the View mode.
Double-click ico file, it shows the Browser mode.
How can I change the default view to View mode for all file types?
I use the portable xniew 2.40.

Re: Change default double-click View for ico files
got regedit and find
- In the right-pane, note down the value data for Progid
-If the UserChoice branch does not exist, navigate to the following branch:
In the right-pane, double-click (default) and mention the path to your custom icon
edit that and close.
Code: Select all
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.txt\UserChoice
-If the UserChoice branch does not exist, navigate to the following branch:
Code: Select all
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt
edit that and close.
Re: Change default double-click View for ico files
Problem solved.
"F:\XnView\xnview.exe" "%1"
For .ico file type, the "%1" was missing.
"F:\XnView\xnview.exe" "%1"
For .ico file type, the "%1" was missing.
Re: Change default double-click View for ico files
Just bumping this topic, as this is must be a bug in XnView itself...
On Windows 10 there is no "actions" for .ico files, however adding "%1" after a space to the end of default value in fixes the problem
So it should look like this (your path might be different)
