I've added a custom protocal handler that works great in XP, but when
I try to run it in Vista I get the following error:
"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing
this action. Create an asociation in the Set Associations control
panel."
When I pull up "Associate a file type or protocol with a specefic
program" from the Control Panel, my handler is not listed, nor is
there a way to add a protocol.
In XP I would just add registry keys to the HKCR\ hive, setting the
DefaultIcon key and a shellKey\open\command key.
What has changed in Vista? What am I missing? I have been unable to
find a post describing how to create a custom protocol handler in
Vista - surely I'm not the only one that wants to do that, so I've got
to be missing something.
Thanks for your help,
