cannot open .nrw (Nikon-RAW) files from Windows Explorer

[gekap]

which value do you have for HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.nrw\OpenWithList?

I've exportet the whole .nrw-key from this location and here is the content (for info: I've currently Windows Photo Gallery as default programm for .nrw-files, otherwise I can not open it from explorer):

Code: Select all

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.nrw]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.nrw\OpenWithList]
"a"="FastPictureViewer.exe"
"MRUList"="bca"
"b"="WLXPhotoGallery.exe"
"c"="xnview.exe"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.nrw\OpenWithProgids]
"nikonrawfile"=hex(0):
"Photoshop.NRWFile.70"=hex(0):
"Photoshop.NRWFile.80"=hex(0):

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.nrw\UserChoice]
"Hash"="6OE/V0O4MYo="
"ProgId"="WindowsLive.PhotoGallery.raw.16.4"

Had same issue with .NRW and with .DNG, fixed it by adding "%1" to (Default) key at "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\xnview.exe\shell\open\command", i.e. this key must be:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\XnViewMP\xnview.exe" "%1"

i guess, something was wrong with windows "open with..." association dialog, so maybe adding this filetypes to "association tool" at XnViewMP settings/integration would be good.

many thanks, that works!
and now it would be perfect if anyone can tell me how to associate the raw.ico (icon-file) for .nrw-files, so that explorer shows up this icon instead of the XNView-icon for .nrw-files...
