Michael

In the process of fixing Roxio/Sonic partial installs, uninstall failures
etc I have ended up with usless entries in the registry for:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DVD\shell\play\command and
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DVD\shell\open\command

I have wandered around looking for some place to set these values other than
via regedit but no luck so far.

Could someone please report their values for these entries (hopefully with
any reference to roxio or sonic items)

Thanks

You're welcome, Michael. Note that the following branch does not exist by default.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DVD\shell\open

You may want to backup the branch and delete "open" later.

I did just that, a 'default' open then shows when right clicking the drive
icon. I am a much happier camper.
