Chuck see if you can import this

Could not install. Dialog box opens saying some files are in use or I do not have privileges to make changes.

Can you both look at registry and see if this key exists HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0E5AAE11-A475-4c5b-AB00-C66DE400274E}

Chuck try importing the file from reply #15.

For most of these keys you do need to be an admin on the computer.

Please export your Folder key so I can see what yours is set to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder

 

[Neemobeer]

These are the keys involved in opening a folder, the important one is shell\open\command\(Default)

 

[chuckj5]

The registry file you requested. I had to save as text so I could upload it. Forum would not let me upload as .reg

 

[Neemobeer]

Hmm well that looks normal

I ran the Process Monitor and could not find that string. I did a search for it and received a message that it was unable to be found (see attached). I went to the Regedit and found it (see attachment).
