CFA sometimes uses wrong command

Post by peterbonge »

Several of my CFA entries/settings aren't working as intended anymore. Instead of the configured app the default app of the system is used if I double click on a file. And that although the configured app is shown in bold in the CFA menu. Example: VBS files are getting executed instead of opened in the editor.

I've noticed this with AHK files (AutoHotkey), VBS and JS files so far. With Image files on the other hand, it seems to work fine.

I already verified the problem with a clean install (24.20.0207_beta).

1) Is "Open With: ..." in the file info tip showing the correct app? (Configuration | Information | File Info Tips & Hover Box | Show file info tips | Select Extra Fields...)

2) Do you have an idea when this started?

...

UPDATE: got it! 8)

1) No, it shows [File is executable] for the problematic file types.
2) I've just tested the last few betas and it started with "24.20.0110_beta".
