Can't associate .php file type in...

I just updated my HTML Editor to the lastest version, 12.7 build 454. I deleted the old version as the instructions said. So my php files had no program associated with them and would not open. I have gone into appdata to find the program file to associate with .php and it is not working. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Randall

That sounds more like an operating system issue to me. There is nothing within the software that would prevent a file association. That function is handled at the OS level and not within the program.

This may help:

1. Close the Editor
2. Start > Run and then type Regedit
3. Delete the key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\Coffee.exe
4. Now try to file associate something with the Editor now.
