which reg values modified my python installer under windows

[Philippe C. Martin]

Hi,

I am looking for the reg path that is modified/created by the pyton
installer to associate *.pyc with python.exe as I wish to associate *.pyc
with pythonw.exe

Regards,


Philippe

Philippe,

You wrote: I wish to associate *.pyc with pythonw.exe

is there some reason why Tools->Folder Options->File Types (from a
Windows Explorer menu) won't work?

You could do it from a cmd prompt with assoc and ftype if you needed to
script it.

All the best,

Keir.

Keir,

I forgot to mention that I want to do it automatically from my application's
installer.

Philippe

Windows file associations are in

Hope that helps you.

Calling the "assoc" and "ftype" commands is one approach. Try them with
the existing settings to see how standard Python sets them up:

c:\> assoc .py
..py=Python.Fil e

c:\> ftype Python.File
....

Use "assoc /?" or "ftype /?" for help.
