File Association to CMD.EXE /C

The File Association Wizard *forces* me to choose one of the EXEcutables that are installed with my solution to associate a file extension with... but I need to do something more complex than that.

I need the Shell\open\command to be exactly as follows:

Code: Select all

CMD.EXE /C "C:\Path\To\My\Installed\App.exe" run %1
I have found no way to do that.... how do I do it?

Re: File Association to CMD.EXE /C

Hi,

I am afraid this is not supported.

Could you give us more details why do you need your application be launched through the CMD.EXE when you need to handle a file extension? Maybe we manage to find a workaround for your requirement.

All the best,
Daniel
