Yes, but opening up files in this manner requires cooperation from the program to pay attention to the file name that is sent by the Windows shell. Right now MoI does not pay attention to this, so it doesn't matter what you do in Windows, MoI just isn't listening to that information right now. I will fix this up in MoI. - Michael

I undestand but if the prog is not on the list (as me), you can force open by the button "travel" (?) folowing the double clic in windows :) And if you enable "always open this sort of file with this prog", an icon with your "Yellow light" icone is created ! And that works perfectly, for this time I have try all the manipulation :) Each time I save a file from moi, the 3dm file + moi's icone is created on my desk :) And start launch directly when I clic the new saved name file iconed :) Even Moi has not the first automatic links information for the 3dm windows shell (that you want to do) after my little manipulation that pretty works .... So now I don't understand the problem :D --- Pilou Is beautiful that please without concept! My Gallery

Not on my computer, Frenchy. Windows ignores me looking for MoI with the 'browse' button. I choose MoI and tick the always open with square...and nothing. Cheers Fraser

> And start launch directly when I clic the new saved name file iconed :) MoI will launch, but are you sure that it is loading the file that you clicked? What should happen right now is MoI will start up but it will be a blank scene. - Michael

:):):) You right! The screen of MOi is like a desert :D I am too trusting in the technic! One more time I have not seen the result, just that Moi launching was suffisant for me ! Now I full understand the problem :D Hopfuly, it's not a big disagrement because you can load your file by the menu! This time I have seen my object :D --- Pilou Is beautiful that please without concept! My Gallery

:) It should not be hard for me to fix it - Windows is telling me which file should be opened, I'm just not listening to it yet. - Michael

This is fixed for the next beta, you can now set things up so that double-clicking a .3dm file in Windows file explorer will open that file up in MoI. It doesn't automatically set it up yet though, you still need to one time hit the "browse" button and tell the Window shell that you want MoI to open that kind of file. But with the next beta once you do that it will work. - Michael
