cdplayer question

[Jeremy Poynton]

After installing and uninstalling a different cdplayer to the standard w2k
issue, I get this error message box each time I play a new CD

"Access to the specified device, path or file, is denied"

The action linked with the .cda file type is

C:\WINNT\system32\cdplayer.exe -play "%1"

The registry entries are

hkcr\applications\cdplayer.exe\shell\open\command
C:\WINNT\system32\cdplayer.exe "%1"

&

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cdafile]
@="CD Audio Track"
"EditFlags"=dword:00010000
"MPlayer2.BAK"="CD Audio Track"
"FriendlyTypeName"="@C:\\WINNT\\inf\\unregmp2.exe,-9918"
"BrowserFlags"=dword:00000008
"AlwaysShowExt"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cdafile\DefaultIcon]
@="C:\\WINNT\\system32\\cdplayer.exe,12"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cdafile\EditFlags]
@="_H_00010000"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cdafile\shell]
@="play"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cdafile\shell\play]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cdafile\shell\play\command]
@="C:\\WINNT\\system32\\cdplayer.exe -play \"%1\""


I assume that it is something here that is causing the error message.

Any thoughts, anyone ?

TIA

Jeremy,

The entries under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cdafile and sub-keys look okay. I see the Default value for
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.cda as cdafile. Under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\applications\cdplayer.exe I have a Default
value that is not set and a NoOpenWith value that is empy. I have no sub-keys under this key yet you are showing the sub-
keys shell\open\command with a value of C:\WINNT\system32\cdplayer.exe "%1".
