| Summary | 0001627: MediaMonkey sets File Type to 'MediaMonkey file' for all supported extensions | ||||
| Description | MediaMonkey sets the Windows File Type for all associated file types to 'MediaMonkey file'. This is kind of annoying--it should instead use something like: .mp3 : MP3 Audio File .mpc : MPC Audio File etc. | ||||

Note: there are numerous support questions caused by this issue. |

Technical note: Most of the related code is in FileAssoc.pas, currently for all filetypes the following is used: const AssociateName = 'MediaMonkey.File'; AssociateDescription = 'MediaMonkey file'; This should be changed so that it's contructed dynamically according to file extension. All functions should work properly then as they do now. Note that FileAssoc.pas uses {$ifdef DLLVersion} to indicate code used only in Helpers\AssocDll project, it should compile fine both with and without this directive. |
