Associating a file type with a program
I tried this:
WriteRegStr HKLM "SOFTWARE\Classes\.ctl\OpenWithList\My Program.exe" "" ""
WriteRegStr HKCR ".ctl\OpenWithList\My Program.exe" "" ""
And my installer writes these strings perfectly, but when I try to open a *.ctl file it still doesn't know what program to use. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any help.

You want to find file
association so search for "associate".
