Can do

You can the see the path to this key at the bottom of the screen shot. All i did was add the %* at the end.

You can use the search function and search for mshta.exe, for me it was the first thing to come up.
It might be good to check the other mshta.exe under the other keys.

I just went through the registry again
\mshta.exe\shell\open\command - all my keys under this path had the %* except for the one i changed and that got it to work. Mine is using the 32, you might have the 64bit associated with yours. in that case it would sysWOW64 in the path instead of system32.


Thanks Budd! Hopefully that will help nelms.

Leaving town for a few days in just a bit but you need to assume that I'm not that computer literate so you'll have to give me some step by step instructions on how to just get to where that snapshot was taken. I'll be back on Thursday and will check in.

first off don't know if you have your run command showing. Here's how to add this to the start menu. If you already have it showing you can skip this.

Okay, I'm missing the %* part but how do I edit the string?

Never mind, figured it out and now it appears to work just like it's supposed to! Thanks for the assist on this. I'll buy the adult beverages if we ever cross paths.
