files.ext not reconized inside bubble

Hi everyone,

 

I'm running into a frustrating issue and it appears I'm not the only one facing this problem. Here's a little summary, I can open my thinapp'ed applicationX, the files associated with applicationX are being reconized after a ThinReg.exe. The problem is, once I am inside the bubble I go to File->Open and browse to open my applicationX files to realize that the files aren't being reconized from inside.

 

The situation :

  • From a normal environnement after a ThinReg: Files with extension .ext are being correctly associated to my applicationX
  • Insidethe bubble : Once I am inside the bubble by running applicationX,  I do File-->Open and notice that the files.ext aren't being reconized as applicationX files.

 

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ThinReg.EXT]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ThinReg.EXT\DefaultIcon]

@="c:\\applicationX.exe,-10

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ThinReg.EXT\shell]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ThinReg.EXT\shell\open]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ThinReg.EXT\shell\open\command]

@="c:\\applicationX.exe"\" \"%1\""

 

I believe the above Registry key are causing the issues, they appear after a I do a ThinReg.exe applicationX. If I remove the -10, it will work, in other words, from File->Open, the files.ext are being reconized aka icons being correctly displayed. What are those codes anyways? Are they random? It appears that different thinapp returns different code and I have no idea where they are from, is it from Windows, thinreg, vmware, or the application itself?

 

 

Package.ini


[applicationX.exe]

Shortcut=applicationX.dat

Disabled=0

Shortcuts=%StartMenu%\applicationX

Source=%ProgramFilesDir%\applicationX.EXE

FileTypes=.EXT

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.txt

 

isolation_full HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\.EXT

  Value=

  REG_SZ~xxxxxxxxblablaxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

I read a fix about deleting keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.txt, but my file doesn't contain any other information other than the one above.

I am sorry for the censoring, I had to but I think I provided with all the informations for someone to help me

 

Please note that I cannot remove the -10 because it will only reappear after the next login since we thinreg at every login and the registry key will just reset.

Thank you,
