Usertypes kicks ass

Ok, I have the registry changed after making a usertype but it updates the icon and file type name AFTER A RESTART. There must be a way to update them immediately. Many apps do that, do any of you know?

I'm probably just saying nonsense at random, but maybe this might work...

Code:

---

Option Explicit
Public Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002 ' Use the key that you were writing to, instead!
Declare Function RegFlushKey Lib "advapi32.dll" (ByVal hKey As Long) As Long

---

Then (it probably won't work but you might as well try) use this:

Call RegFlushKey(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE)

Again, the rationality of this code is looming towards the big zero, and the possibility of a positive effectiveness rising from it is as fat as a giraffe. :D

But, you can try it, and if it doesn't work, blame Microsoft!!! :mad:

I'll have a try

ARGH! Didn't work, thanks anyway Yonatan.

Hey, if you edit folderoptions>Filetypes and edit, change, remove or add something there, all filetypes will update, can i do that update by calling it somehow`?
