Sorry for the late reply. All five test cases work for me.
Win XP Pro SP3
GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2006-03-21 on YAMALOK
(pre-compiled binary).
Firefox 3.5.5 is set as default browser.
I attached the export of HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.htm as a TXT document. The
HKLM version contains identical info, and I have no .htm under the HKCU
path.
HTH!

I have got a problem with w32-shell-execute and file:/// URLs. It
looks like Jason Rumney and I get different results and I do not know
why. I need the help of couple of persons to test if the below calls
works or not. Could perhaps you test?
Please replace the file argument to a valid file and try the calls
below. Just place the cursor after the ) char and press C-x C-e. I
want to know if it opens the file in the web browser or not.
(w32-shell-execute "open" "c:/some/file.html") ;; OK
(w32-shell-execute nil "file:c:/some/file.html") ;; OK
(w32-shell-execute nil "file:///c:/some/file.html") ;; OK
(w32-shell-execute "open" "file:///c:/some/file.html") ;; Doesn't work
(w32-shell-execute "open" "file:c:/some/file.html") ;; Doesn't work

Thanks for all responses. I think there must be some Registry entries
responsible for the difference. Does anyone know which those might be?
I guess the relavant entries are at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\file
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\file
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\file
Could someone for whom it worked in all cases export these keys and
send them here?
