View Full Version : Extension Unregistering

I'd like it if QCD would unregister extensions that no longer have an input plugin associated with them. So if I, for example, disable the WAV plugin, WAVs will no longer launch QCD.
Should already be in B66.

Then it isn't working as the QCD supplied icon is still registered to the format and it is still recognized as a QCD audio file. And when I launch a wav from a browser it still thinks QCD is default.

Yes, I've had the same problems (as I mentioned in a previous post). Especially when installing a newer build (clean installs). QCD seems to pick up my preferences in earlier versions that I still keep on my hard drive, and (sometimes, not always) carries them to the new version. As I've said before, I then have to manually unassociate the registrations (video, mostly), re-register them in the file association window and close - reopen QCD. Dev67 seemed not to do this, but I may have forgotten (there goes my "oldtimer's desease" again);)

If this is really a problem, than it is non-unique. Other programmes like quicktime, real player, paint shop pro (for me), and many others that may be cause problems on some systems and not on others like to register and unregister file extensions. I'd say it is the fault of windows.

No, I don't think so. The others have options to re-register associations at startup. I always disable that option. QCD also has that option, and I always make sure that it is disabled.

Maybe im just careless with file extensions :D

Have you registered to anything else after that? Sounds logical to me that they have to be registered on something.
