The only downside to self-contained apps is that there's no file-type association present in the host system's registry, so documents must be opened from within the app rather than double-clicked. But this factor is independent of any method used to determine what type of drive it's one; it's just an inherent part of being a portable app.

With ButtonGadget having to 'register' it's filetype, I'm aware of this issue on the PC.

Here's how I've worked around it. Everytime BG launches, it checks the registry to make sure it's registered correctly (filepaths, filetypes, icons, etc..).

I do this on every launch instead of during installation and it takes only a second. Not sure how this works on Macs.
