Hi all,

In my InnoSetup file, I'm adding this line for Internet Explorer not to popup the "download window" each time a user is opening my application:

HKLM; Subkey: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Accepted Documents; ValueType: string; ValueName: "abc3"; ValueData: "application/abc3"

It works fine for IE but I can't find a way to achieve the same thing in Firefox...

Any idea?

Thanks,
- Dan

Firefox has a similar way of doing this, but I don't know if it's implemented via a registory setting or a configuration file. To view the actions associated with each file, follow this process: (I am using Firefox 1.5, but YMMV).

1) Click "Edit" from the main menu.
2) Click "Preferences".
3) Click the "Downloads" tab.
4) Click the "View and Edit Actions" button in the "Download Actions" frame.

If I am patronising you, I'm sorry. You might want to checkout the users appdata found in c:/Documents And Settings/[userName]/Application Data/Mozilla/Firefox. Obviously this will differ slightly on some systems.

That's actually a great suggestion :)


Thanks!
