.swf file association

[NeoPlosive]

I've spent so much time this week scripting for Laptop Builds/Software installations that my brain is just shot.

 

I'm looking for a quick script to change the .swf association to open in IE by default.

Not an issue anymore: After talking to myself and scratching my head I finally got it working...

 

Sleep sounds like a good idea!

What did you do?

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash\DefaultIcon]
@="C:\\Program Files\\macrom~1\\macrom~1.0\\flashm~1\\flash.exe,2"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash\Shell]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash\Shell\Open]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash\Shell\Open\Command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\IEXPLORE.EXE\" %1"

 

Imported into the registry... Now going to Global Workstations the registry fragment and fingers crossed.

 

I'm using GameKiller2 to tackle our SWF game issue so I needed to force it all via IE but didn't want the user to have any hassle.
