spv files
About this tag
This tag covers discussions about .spv files, a file extension that users may want to associate with a custom application in Windows. The primary topic is how to add a custom app to the 'Open with' dialog box so that double-clicking an .spv file launches the desired program. Users report challenges getting their compiled executable (e.g., spine.exe) to appear in the recommended or other programs list, even after consulting specialists. The content focuses on file association methods in Windows, troubleshooting the 'Open with' interface, and making custom apps the default handler for .spv files. No other uses or definitions of the .spv format are discussed in the available content.
I can't figure out how to add my own app to the 'Open with' dialogue box (below). I want to open files with an .spv file type with an app. I compiled with Visual C++. In other words I want my app to open when I double-click on any file ending in .spv. It works fine from the command line...
