I did send Karafun an email. But honestly, I believe this issue to be application independent. The whole issue revolves around the fact that Windows 7 (and Vista) uses Explorer as the default app to open zip files... and, if you remove the registry key for this (which I did), to have Win 7 not treat zip files like folders, it won't. That works. But, if you then assocaite a "program" with zip files (a program, aside from winzip or winrar) it will revert back to explorer after a reboot. There's somethign going on with the registry that is "resetting' this.
If someone can show me how to associate a zip file with "any" program, where Win 7 will remember the newly assocaited app. after a couple of reboot's, I'm all ears. that's my dilema

Well if it was application independent, Winzip nor Winrar would keep the .zip association which you say they do. Sounds like Karafun is just not supported for Windows 7.

I had the same problem with Karafun every time I clicked on a .cdg file in windows explorer I had to re do the file association I solved it by making the file association in Karafun Player "options" just tick the box to associate Karafun Player with .cdg files or just tick them all to associate all Karaoke files with Karafun Player and now it works every time in windows explorer
What I did was I unzipped all Karaoke files into their containing folder.
each .zip file gives you two files per song one .cdg file and one MP3
You simply associate the cdg file with Karafun in Karafun options and that's it done.
All you do is click the cdg file in windows explorer and it opens in Karafun and plays !
