Problem w/ Shell Extension

Hi,

I have my brand new PowerShell Studio software installed on both a workstation and laptop w/ great success. Love the product!

However, there is one bothersome issue that is consistent on both the workstation and laptop. Whenever I right-click a PS1 file and left-click "Edit in PrimalForms" (why this still exists when I have upgraded to PowerShell Studio is the first question), right-click "Open With" and choose "PowerShell Studio 2012", -or- double-click said PS1 files w/ PS Studio owning the default file association, I always get an install dialogue that prompts me and attempts to locate the original installer and path to that installer.

Could it be two different applications fighting over the default association of PS1 files?

Another thought I'd had was maybe I'd made a mistake in installing only the "typical" or "minimal" product install option, so PS Studio is looking for something I unknowingly chose not to install?

Confirmation?

And is there an easy way to get rid of the old "Edit with PrimalForms" shell extension that remains on my computers?

Thanks,

John

Thanks we didn't catch that. This is an installer issue and it will be resolved in the next service release. When you update to the next version it will automatically remove this association and correct it.David

Ok, just to clarify this in my head then, the next service release fixes both the remaining "Edit with PrimalForms" shell extension issue AND the MUCH more annoying installer launching when i open PowerShell Studio via the methods i described?

I'm not sure but they could potentially be related. We will try to run some tests on our end to see if we can recreate it. David

Hi. Any news on this yet?

And were you able to sleuth out and/or re-create the installer request problem I described?

We are unable to recreate the installer launching issue. We will have a service release fairly soon and it should hopefully resolve the issue. David
