It seems to be a problem only with Chrome

|"chrome1|chrome.ico" html;htm > chrome
|"chrome2|chrome.ico" html;htm > notepad

Could it be the case? Try both chrome and Chrome.

Then Chrome is not registered correctly in the 32-bit branch of the registry. (But here in Win8.1 it is.)

It should not make a difference. Fixed in next beta.

I was referring to with/without spaces. That the icon is missing is due to a wrong to your Chrome being not correctly registered.

My mistake, I thought you were referring to text.
There is still a problem with the text display.

That's on purpose: If the file reference does not work ("chrome") then you get no custom text / icon. That should tell you that something is wrong here.

FYI, in the last beta (v23.60.0006) I added a (not officially documented) way to find out whether a nick name (aka "ProgID") like "Chrome" actually works:

Code: Select all

echo get("assoc", "Chrome", 2); 
On my system it returns "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe".
