Hi,
With built 2504 I'm unable to associate .log files to VVLogViewer app as default program. It seems that Windows doesn't recognize the app as a "valid application to open file". Maybe a dll to register? I think its releated to 64bits edition of Win7 only, ive upgraded a few customer with WinXP 32bits without this issue.
For the moment ive downgrade to built 2501 and its working fine.

Thanks for your support Very Happy

Hi, that's strange , VVLogViewer code has not changed between the two releases. I tried on a brand new Windows 7 64bit installation and could not reproduce the issue, as far as I know the installation does not associate .log extension with VVLogViewer, is that an extra step you are doing? When do you get the error message? thanks

The "real" problem is that i can't select VVLogViewer.exe as a program to open a specific file type (eg: .log file: right click on the file, open with, browse and select VVLogViewer.exe). Can you try this on your test Win7 with 2504 and 2501?
BTW: I don't have any error message, i just can't add VVLogViewer.exe to "open with"

Thanks for your support again!

Hi, it works OK on Windows 7 64-bit ultimate with ViceVersa PRO 2.5 build 2504 64-bit. I have right-clicked on a .log file and selected "open with..." and then browsed and selected VVLogViewer. thanks
