Also, the %1 should be surrounded by its own set of double quotes ... otherwise, files/folders with spaces in them will not work.

A path is like "c:\program files\etc" or "c:\windows\". Experiment and see, though you may want to back up your registry first just in case.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Open with Photofiltre]
@=””

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Open with photofiltre\command]
@=”photofiltre.exe %1″

Gurbinder at first I had the same problem, but that was because I noticed afterwards that when I copied the script into a text document @=”notepad.exe %1″ ended up being @=”notepad.exe %1? Other than that, the quotation marks were always a bother in registry stuff.. soo just rewrite all the open and closed quotation marks as normal " (you'll see they look different) Thanks alot!! :D Needed that…
