Hi,
I'm registering a filetype associated with my program's executable in
Windows 7, and it works perfectly:
...
<!-- Registration of file types -->
<ProgId Id='WixExample01.wixexample' Description='WixExample01 data
file'>
<Extension Id='wixexample' ContentType='application/wixexample'>
<Verb Id='open' Command='Open' TargetFile='WixExample01.exe'
Argument='"%1"' />
</Extension>
</ProgId>
...
However, I noticed that after the application is uninstalled, the
application's data files *still* have the icon viewable with the data files.
(i.e. 'MyDataFile.wixexample' still has the application icon viewable in
Windows Explorer). I noticed the associated entry in the registry has
correctly been removed (i.e. Under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.wixexample) along with
all the other things typical with an uninstall.
When I log off or restart the machine, the icons are correctly removed. It's
as if windows needs a 'refresh'.
I get the feeling this is a windows or windows installer issue, and not
really a Wix problem. Can anyone point me in the right direction so the
icons in the application's data files disappear immediately after an
uninstall occurs?
Thank-you.
