Hi,
I am trying to associate the .cso (Compressed PSP ISO), with the program UMDGen, but, no matter how many times I have tried, it won't work. Currently, the .cso extension is not associated with any program, so when I try to associate it with UMDGen (after I select the program location), it acts as if nothing happened. Please help, as it is really annoying.
Thanks,
Slasher
Have you tried this tutorial? - Default Programs - Associate a File Type or Protocol
If that doesn't work, try this program 'Associate This' - Spearit Software - Download Spearit Software Products
Hi,
I have tryed both your suggestions, but sadly, both failed to fix the solution.

Hi,
Isn't there any option in the program itself to associate that file extention with it?
Will get back to you tomorrow. Going to bed now.
Hi,
Yes there is, although it simply doesnt work. good night. Isn't there a fix that can be done from regedit?

May be you have tried that - but you have to associate it to the .exe of the UMDGen program. Navigate to it in Program Files.
And, when you open that extention, you are presented with a list of applications to choose from, choose the application and make sure the box at below 'Always use this program...' is checked.
If that doesn't work, try associating that from a command window. Sometimes, command prompt does the job where normal mouse clicks don't.
How to Use the Assoc Command to Change File Associations
Hi,
The program is a portable program, not an installed one, therefore, not in the Program files folder. I have pointed it to the exe of UMDGen, but even then, as I said in the first post, its just ignoring what I did.

edit: With the assoc in the CMD it says something like 'the file association not found for extension .cso'
Yeah, that is your problem. A portable program may not be available at all times. That's why the association does not work. Can you install the program permanently?
Hi,
Well, actually, it HAS worked before, but a problem arised in my laptop forcing me to reinstall Windows 7. And now, it doesn't work. This program has no proper install, its just portable.
