Most of them got "generic" and others have %1...

all icons?

I think yes, but I don't have all file types. I saw the generic icon for JPG and PNG as well as TIF.

I have just installed xnviewMP 0.61 on a new laptop with win7 64bit, and have the same problem, the file association tool will not start at all.

I tried running it from command line from mobaxterm and it ran. I checked all the boxes, clicked OK and got about 50-60 lines consisting of only "error".

The associations for the files were messed up tho, old viewer was not associated any more, but neither was xnview.

I ran the tool again to deregister (now it starts with all the boxes ticked) however nothing happens - some "error" messages are pirnted out, about one third of what got printed out earlier.

I viewed the tool with depends.exe, and it reports one error immediately - missing ieframe.dll, however when running the profiling option, there was a missing reference to wintab32.dll from qtcore.dll

Just some info if anyone can try and fix the installer and requirements...

You just have to ignore the file association tool at all for Windows 7 and 8. Just run XnView.exe with administrator rights, go to options -> system integration and press the button to open the Windows 7 "program standards" dialog.
Does this work?

A-HA!!

Worked like a charm, thanks a lot!

Do you have the file icons as expected or just the generic icon or other icons on these files?

I normally use Total commander with no icons, so don't care.

I just checked in Windows Explorer tho, and it shows XNview's eye icon in list view. Hope that helps.

Yes it helps, because it should show individual colored icons and file type in the icon. Hope that gets fixed in the next version. Not a big deal.
