Release 2 breaks outlook links

[Steven Christensen]

After upgrading to Release 2, and accepting the request to update the registry, clicking on https: links in Outlook fails. There is a popup which says:

Microsoft Outlook Something unexpected went wrong with this URL: 'https://blah.blah.com/blah". Application not found. ========================= I can run the Browser Chooser 2 manually. I checked in the application options, and it looks like the associations are set. Reverting to Release 1 does not fix the problem, so I suspect it was the registry change.

Also, can you provide details as to what the registry change does?

[guy]

I updated 2 keys to add quotes. You can re-apply the associations by going into the settings -> Windows Default -> Add to Default Programs. You may need to remove first, but should not be required.

The keys in question: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\BrowserChooser2HTML\shell\open\command(Default) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\BrowserChooser2URL\shell\open\command(Default)

Check them to see if the path is correct. It should be something like: "C:{PATH TO BrowserChooser2}\Browser Chooser 2.exe" "%1"

I added the quotes around %1 to deal with long URLs getting truncated and some special chars causing problems.

With the latest version, I have the same problem as Steven and my registry looks just like guy's. I'm on Windows 7 64-bit. The previous version worked better.

When I click Make Default I get this error:

The error text is:

** JIT Debugging ** To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this application or computer (machine.config) must have the jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section. The application must also be compiled with debugging enabled.

For example:

<configuration> <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" /> </configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer rather than be handled by this dialog box.

After playing around some more with the BC settings, it seems to be working now despite the above error.

[guy]

I found the reason for this error. I will release a quick update this weekend.

[guy]

Both issues fixed in release 2.1, just out.
