I still do not understand why you insist on a 'canOpenFile' approach. Let *windows* do this! it is none of Lyx' business. If a user wants to view a file, fine, let he/she view it. Windows will use the appropriate viewer, or let the user choose/install another viewer. The "auto" viewer is just a walk around of lyx' current behavior, since if there is no viewer specified for pdf, view->pdflatex etc will disappear. Cheers, Bo
