Opening GE file using a right click-->open with GE

Postby Just4Fun » Sat Feb 05, 2005 4:53 pm

Here is a little something that I have found in using GE with windowsXP:

If I want to open a file: "MyFile.ged" from Windows Explorer ( I do not have GE running), I right click on the file,select "Open File With", select GE.

Boom! Bomb! GE error and terminates program. It isn't a big deal, but I thought that I would mention it.

Does anyone else find this to be a problem on their machine? Or is it just me? :wink:
I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.

Opening files

You can't right click to open files and you can't drag and drop files onto the Game Editor when it is already open, like you can do with a Media Player to start the file running.
Also the browser structure is very complicated. Why not use the standard Windows style tree?
