0.31.3 Windows 7 .NZB File Type Association
« on: January 24, 2010, 06:54:56 pm »
I don't think this is a new bug in 0.31.3, but I couldn't find it listed anywhere. Checking the "Register NZB extension to Alt.Binz" does not do anything in Windows 7 (Ultimate 32 bit). You have to manually associate it in Explorer. Granted, there is a work around, but it would be nice if this bug was fixed.

See the post above yours.  Clearly users are having different experiences.  More testing needed.

This might explain it:

Thankfully this is the only registry change Alt.Binz ever makes.

Beat me to it :p

Although I'm pretty sure that solves the problem, can others also confirm?

And for clarity: You only need to run as administrator once to set the association, then just run as normal.
