I would like to be able to add a secondary file association for all the wads on my computer. The primary association on the right-click menu calls Deepsea, but underneath it I have added a secondary one which calls XWE.
I did this by going to the Folder Options in Windows (XP), then File Types, and under WAD, I went to the Advanced options and added another action "Open with XWE". In the application path, I put:
code:
"C:\Documents and Settings\EarthQuake\My Documents\Doom\XWE\XWE.exe" %1 %2 %3
I've done this with other programs in my My Documents directory, however XWE returns the following message:
code:
File Not Found: C:\Documents
So now I'm thinking, well it's not finding it because of the spaces in the name, yet when I use the 8-character path/filename convention:
code:
"C:\Docume~1\EarthQ~1\MyDocu~1\Doom\XWE\XWE.exe" %1 %2 %3
It returns the same error message.
So finally, as a last resort, I right click on the wad file and click "Open With...", and search and find the file. When I click ok, typically, windows would add that program to the list, but behold, it's not there. I'm not sure what's going on, but it only happens with XWE...
Hope I explained everything well enough... basically, I have to open my wads manually with XWE and its becoming a pain in the ass.
Thanks.
