[IDEA] tbn explorer shell integration
#1
One thing I would find very useful would be windows explorer shell integration for .tbn files.
I have one for instance that allows me to see my PSD files displayed as thumbnails as opposed to icons. That way I can quickly identify files. Something like that for .tbn files would be a great tool to me.
I have no idea how hard this would be to make, but tnb files do open without a problem in the image preview app.
Anyway, just throwing this out there. If someone out there has the time and knowledge to make something like this, it would be very appreciated Smile

Sure looks like it, thanks Smile Cool that a reg hack should do the trick. However it doesn't seem to work for me (using Windows 7). Logging on and off didn't help either.

There's another entry in my registry:

Code:

That's probably registered because I set the default handler for tbn files to windows photoviewer.
I have no idea how to modify the registry hack on that site to work in windows 7 though Oo

I'm not sure about Win7, worked right away for me on XP.

Hm, I'll try rebooting later to see if that may change anything. However I believe that most registry hacks will either work right away or after a logon.
