Tikimaster Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 After a total loss of my mainboard I am happy to get VPX back. I am on a fresh Windows 11 and my complete installation is at the same place as before, so I only had to register the components to get everything working again. Puhh!! I tried "open with" to connect a *.vpx file to my VPinballX.exe - but - If I double click on a table file, the editor opens empty and does not load the table file. I have to open the table with file/open. The other Problem is with right click. ( I hate Windows 11) On my old windows, which is dead, I could right click on a table and chose edit or open. Can anyone help me to get these functions back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffy Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 Had to go through the same thing in a recent computer move. You need to edit the registry like so; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tikimaster Posted May 14, 2023 Author Share Posted May 14, 2023 Ok, I double checked the entrys, I got no mistake. Have the same settings now - with my path. - But there is no edit with right click and double click still opens the empty editor. My Frontend opens tables without problems. (PinballY) No Idea what the problem is. I hate Windows 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tikimaster Posted May 14, 2023 Author Share Posted May 14, 2023 Yes I did. Thats the reason why windows opens vpx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikimaster Posted May 15, 2023 Author Share Posted May 15, 2023 (edited) I made a backup of vpin folder. Then installed 10.7.2 with installer and copied back all files from backup. Now it works. Puhh. But: I have different entries. I post them here, maybe someone other can use this info: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\VPinballX.exe] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\VPinballX.exe\shell] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\VPinballX.exe\shell\edit] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\VPinballX.exe\shell\edit\command] @="\"D:\\Visual Pinball\\VPinballX.exe\" -edit \"%1\"" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\VPinballX.exe\shell\edit POV] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\VPinballX.exe\shell\edit POV\command] @="\"D:\\Visual Pinball\\VPinballX.exe\" -PovEdit \"%1\"" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\VPinballX.exe\shell\open] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\VPinballX.exe\shell\open\command] @="\"D:\\Visual Pinball\\VPinballX.exe\" -ExtMinimized -play \"%1\"" Edited May 15, 2023 by Tikimaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
