I did not look at the installer(InstallShield Express 5.0) but I want my user to be able to activate them of not. Plus, a user can add new file extension.

I installed an old WinZip 8.1 to see and it added it's context menu options. Maybe it was done in the installer.

The installer is like a simple application after all. Why can it do it but not others?

Are my keys at the right place for Vista?

thanks

Now, that option does not work under Vista. Am I doing something wrong? I tried to "Run as Administrator" with not luck. :(
