How to avoid UltraEdit file association dialog after update?

uelx · Aug 19, 2004#12004-08-19T02:26+00:00

What registry keys do I have to add to my UltraEdit installation to make sure that the file association window will not appear after a user runs UltraEdit for the first time.

Setting "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IDM Computer Solutions\UltraEdit\Settings\CheckAssociations" to 0 does not work.

Thanks,

Don't know, what must be set in the registry, because I have set in the INI file to store everything in the INI file and nothing in the registry. In the INI file two settings must be set correctly to not show the file association dialog.

[Settings]
Version=V??.??
CheckAssociations=0

where V??.?? is the actual version of UE, for example V10.10 for 10.10 - 10.10c of UE or V10.20 for 10.20 - 10.20d of UE.

After an upgrade of a new version with different version number, UE detects the version conflict and shows the file association dialog again, independent of the CheckAssociations entry.

Thanks!
It works with this REG file:

Code: Select all

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IDM Computer Solutions\UltraEdit\Settings]
"CheckAssociations"=dword:00000000
"Version"="V9.20"
