Hello, i'm a problem with the association files in xnview !!
I would like to associate xnview with the most used extension and i'm a the beautiful icon for tga,gif but no for jpeg and bmp why ???
With the RC2 i'm associate the most extension and when a open a file Xnview open this file but the icon don't change !!!
RC2: File Association don't work
Moderators: helmut, XnTriq, xnview
Just tried on Windows XP SP2, here it works o.k..
For testing I have:
1 - Started XnView
2 - Associated the file format "GIF" in Tools > Options, category "Associations")
3 - Closed options and restarted XnView.
4 - Looked in browser whether GIF symbol of XnView appears.
5 - Selected GIF file and pressed "F3" to open it with the associated program.
Then I've checked the correct removal of the association:
1 - Removed the association, again, by unchecking GIF in "Associations".
2 - Restarted XnView.
3 - Looked in browser whether former GIF symbol (MS PhotoEditor) appears
4 - Selected GIF file an pressed "F3" to see whether it opens with the former application.
As written above this all worked o.k. on Windows XP SP2.
