I've had an ongoing issue with associating .wav files (Vista Business 32 bit)
Nomatter how many of these methods I try (including two third-party utilities)
I CANNOT change the association of .wav files to Cool Edit Pro 2 - despite it appearing
in the list of possible programs I can assign it to - nor via the browsing directly
to the executable AND ticking the "always use this program".
It ALWAYS opens Windows Media Player nomatter what I do.
One facility (Default Programs Editor) did allow me to put a new right-click
command in to open CEPro, but I don't know what syntax to use to get it to open
the right-clicked item, so it opens, but then you have to manually navigate all the
way to the file anyway, losing most of the point of being able to double-click.
