Those "open with" items are listed in a different registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ Explorer\FileExts\.ext\OpenWithList Substitute your extension for ".ext" in the path above. For example, under ".mc" I have the following string values: a REG_SZ MetaCard.exe b REG_SZ Revolution.exe c REG_SZ iexplore.exe d REG_SZ StackRunner.exe Why do I have "iexplore.exe"? Probably because I'd clicked on a "raw" link in IE and it make the "open with" association automatically. So to remove it, I just highlight "iexplore.exe" and delete it with the deletekey, leaving me with: a REG_SZ MetaCard.exe b REG_SZ Revolution.exe d REG_SZ StackRunner.exe Now I don't know if there's a problem with the names being out of sequence (there's no "c" now), so I usually go in and rename the ones following the one I deleted so it stays in sequence.
