File icons disappeared

Daniel

I recently uninstalled Studio 2011 because I no longer need it. However, when I now receive a Studio package (SDLPPX file) from my workgiver or when I create a return package (SDLRPX file), the file icon is blank as though the PC doesn't recognise the file. This is also the case for Studio projects (SDLPROJ files) and all other SDL files. It's only a mild irritation because Studio still opens the packages and projects with no problem. I'm just wondering why the file association would have suddenly disappeared. Thanks.

    If you have had several instances of Studio installed and uninstalled one of those, please do now a repair installation (via Control Panel in Windows) to make sure the registry entries do match the current used version. This also should bring back the file associations (with the corresponding symbols).

    Hi Jerzy,

    yes, I meant to try that. I tried to repair it from within the Studio application, but there didn't seem to be an option. I then went to Apps and Features in the Windows 10 settings, but it wouldn't let me 'Modify', only 'Uninstall'... After reading your post, I realised if you scroll down in the Windows 10 settings window, you can click a link that takes you to the more familiar Programs and Features window in Control Panel. When you click on Studio 2015 in this window it allows you to repair the program. Don't quite understand why 'Repair' isn't allowed in the Apps and Features window. Just another Windows 10 glitch I guess! Anyway, it's done the trick. Thanks for the suggestion!
