File associations for non administrator account
Posted: Fri Aug 10, 2012 7:51 pm
If XnView is running a standard (non administrator) user account and you set system associations XnView attempts to write to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE which ultimately fails. Interestingly there's no indication that it failed.
7zip recently added support for setting up file associations for CURRENT_USER and/or LOCAL_MACHINE.
I hope in the future XnView will have this option too, or at least issue warning when a file association fails.
