When I right click on a powershell file and select open, PowerShell Studio launches a installation window and is looking for the original install file location. Even if I provide the file, it still does this every time I try to open a powershell file.
I recently upgraded to powershell studio version 3.1.23

Re: Re-install prompt on opening ps1 file
It is possible something went wrong during the update. Have you tried a complete uninstall and then reinstall the application?

Re: Re-install prompt on opening ps1 file
Yes, I used the remove button in the installer to do an uninstall and then re-installed the program.

The next time this occurs go to the Event Viewer and look under Application log and try to find an entry for MsiInstaller. Please post any information you find.

Windows 7
The issue happens every time I right click a powershell file and select open in windows explorer.

Re: Re-install prompt on opening ps1 file
Can you temporarily remove the "PowerShell File Type Associations" Feature using the installer? This should hopefully prevent the Installer from coming up.

Re: Re-install prompt on opening ps1 file
I removed the PowerShell File Type Associations Feature, and now when I right click and select open, powershell files open up without issue in PowerShell Studio. It appears that it's still set as the default program for .ps1 files.
I'm not sure if this is related or not, but I have also noticed that on the right click menu for an xml file, I have an additional option for "Edit in Powershell Studio", but on powershell files that option is not present.

Re: Re-install prompt on opening ps1 file
Something must of happened at one point where it lost track of the installation. We will double check the installer to make sure everything looks good.
As for the 'Edit with PowerShell Studio' this is displayed when the extension is perceived as text. Please go to the following registry key and make sure the value for "Perceived Type" is "Text":
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ps1\

Re: Re-install prompt on opening ps1 file
I don't have a Perceived Type Key, just a default key with a value of Microsoft.PowerShellScript.1 I have powershell ISE installed, it probably set that value.
