Try:
ASSOC .PL=Perl
FTYPE Perl="C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1" %*
Before actually doing that, just check what the current values are:
ASSOC .PL
FTYPE WhateverYouGetAsTheResultOfThePreviousLine

now give error message
The other day, I was working with PPM3 getting the libwww-perl module
and familiarizing myself with PPM3. Everything worked fine. However,
and it may not be actually related to PPM3, when I finished working with
PPM3 and returned to the DOS prompt, I found that I could not longer run
PERL scripts directly from the command line. Prior to my excursion into
the world of PPM3, I would type, for example, Question_load.pl at the
command prompt and Question_load.pl would compile and run. Now it
doesn't. Instead I get an error dialog message box with the message:
"The Windows Installer failed to install the program associated with
this file. Please contact your system administrator." After clicking
the OK button, I get in the DOS window, "Access Denied". However,
fortunately, and strangely, typing: perl Question_load.pl works
perfectly.
Any suggestions on what happened and how to fix it? I liked being able
to just type the script name again.
BTW, I'm using v5.6.1 Build 631 for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread on an Win
NT4 SP6
