. Misfortunes of ICO in the Windows registry for my LabVIEW Application

Wow, adding that last bit of spit-and-shine in a LabVIEW program can turn into any process.

I defined a type of file with a .tpml (XML file of the temperature profile).  When my user double clicks on a file of this type, it launches my LabVIEW application.  All this is worked and works well.  I even setup for my program add entries to Windows registry key so that the .tpml file type is associated with my program executable.  This is related to my previous post here.

The problem I have is that I did a fantasy for my LabVIEW program icon and these well DOCUMENTED files.  The problem is that the key of Windows registry entry that associates this file in my program, causing the ATTESTED to the 16 icon file icon x 16 my program executable.  If I remove the association in the register, it goes back to the .ico file I made.

I don't know if I can add my ATTESTED to my .exe file icon so that an association between the two causes the correct icon to be displayed in Windows, or if there is some other entry registry key that I need to do to replace Windows and requires to use my DOCUMENTED file. ICO for the icon.  Anyone know?

These are the registry keys that makes my Installer:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\

.tpml = "tpmlfile".

. tpml\DefaultIcon = [INSTALLDIR] data\TPMLFile.ico

tpmlfile = temperature profile XML file

tpmlfile\shell\open\command = [INSTALLDIR] Profile Editor.exe '%1 '.

I have all of the isthmus and the brightness I want in this program with the exception of this problem with the icons (less a few problems the keyboard TAB).  As I said, if I remove the entry "tpml\shell\open\command" in the registry, the DefaultIcon works OK.  With this registry in place entry, it uses by default the icon 16 x 16 for "Profile Editor.exe".

Any ideas?

Thank you very much for your time and input!

The solution was that I needed the DefaultIcon key as a child of tpmlfile entry NOT .tpml.  Here is my final registry keys that work like a champ!

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\

.tpml = "tpmlfile".

tpmlfile = temperature profile XML file

tpmlfile\DefaultIcon = [INSTALLDIR] data\TPMLFile.ico

tpmlfile\shell\open\command = [INSTALLDIR] Profile Editor.exe '%1 '.

  • How can I add a product to my Adobe account or locate serial number by using the Windows registry?

    I can't find my receipt of e-mail on my purchase of CS6 end 2012. (I had a long illness, packed things away and now experience some loss of memory) I want to start again use my CS6 and thought that I would be able to go to my Adobe account to retrieve my serial number. However, my account does not show the order or registration of CS6 under my products even if I received an email from Adobe System Incorporated, welcoming me and thank me for my purchase. Cat officers do not find the corresponding product to my e-mail and refuse to make exceptions or provide assistance to a disability or illness. They say that they must have the right email address associated with the product or a proof of purchase! Other software companies have helped me to locate the serial number by using the Windows registry and then had me answering security questions. I even offered to fix the Adobe email thanking me for buying the CS6, but they said, it would not help! Does anyone know if/how I can add the CS6 to my account and get partner to my email address? Maybe Adobe cat could help me? Also, does anyone know if an encrypted version of the serial number is indeed somewhere in the Windows registry, which make possible for Adobe to help me, if they were ready? This software was very expensive and I don't understand why they won't help me if they could.

  • Print directly to the printer option in the Windows registry

    I need to find the location for the option "Print directly to the printer" in the Windows registry.  I am trying to create a GPO to enable this option when connecting and I can't find the place for that.  Is this possible to do?  If not, is there another way to activate this to start for all users?  We run Adobe Acrobat X on Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bit.

    Thank you

    This parameter is actually a printer in Windows, not in Acrobat.

  • LVRT 8.5 in the Windows registry: where is it?

    Hello

    I am not satisfied by the System Installer OR. So, I moved to thing as NSIS (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page) that is spectacular so far and gives really a total control over all aspects of the installation/uninstallation process.

    So I made my request with LV 8.5.

    The idea is that during installation, the NSIS installer will check if the TERM Labview 8.5 is installed in the system, if so, it will continue the installation, otherwise it will start the installation of the LVRT 8.5 first.

    Then, in the Windows registry, where I can find information on the presence of the LVRT 8.5?

    In other words: when I correctly install the LVRT 8.5 in a computer running Windows XP, the strings and Dwords it will write in my registry? and in the paths of the registry?

    Thank you

    PS: Windows Vista? There a registry?

    Hello Pierre,.

    You are right.

    The registry keys written by the development environment or just the execution time are the same.

    So, just as you said, you will find them under HKLM\Software\National Instruments\LabVIEW Time\8.5 run.

  • To install the server does not, after a Preparig to install the window hung for several minutes

    Hi, I tried to install memeo backup of a product for a moment, I recentley purchased. I know that the software and the product is not damaged, because I am able to install it on other computers. Its my fault see tho, I have the seagate FreeAgent GoFlex 1 TB external hard drive, and I had planned to use it on several computers. sort of, I installed it on my computer windows 7 without probs., but when I was installing on my windows vista computer, I accidentally unplugged the drive when installing memeo instant upward.  Needless to say, I knew this would be a problem. Windows popped up saying that the dashboard Seagate (which is the program that installs Memeo instant backup) have not installed properly, so I clicked on reinstall this program with the recommended settings, and I handed the drive and started the installation again. When I did, the registration page (for the unit I was using) pops up and froze, so I closed its process, then Setup of the Board of Directors of Seagate Dash appeared and I started to install, and when he rose to installation of the snapshot of Memeo back, it opens a "Preparing to install" window of a windows installer and after about 10-15 minutes , another windows installer window comes up saying ' to install the server does not.

    Ive done my time just trying to solve this problem and believe he made an incomplete registry file, it whenever it tries to install it tries to use the incomplete record. If one has found a solution to this, or knows what that means of ' installation server does not ", it would be very appreciated for your advice.    If you want to know my characteristics. they are {windows vista 32-bit home Basic, sp 2, 3 GB of ram, 2.10 ghz processor}
