<p dir="auto">Using Atom 0.183.0 on Windows 7 x64.</p>
<p dir="auto">After atom updates, I become unable to double click files and have them open. The command line still works fine.</p>
<p dir="auto">To fix:</p>
<ol dir="auto">
<li>Open <code class="notranslate">regedit.exe</code></li>
<li>Navigate to <code class="notranslate">HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\atom.exe</code></li>
<li>Right-click <code class="notranslate">(Default)</code>, click <code class="notranslate">Modify...</code></li>
<li>Modify the text from <code class="notranslate">C:\Users\Michael\AppData\Local\atom\app-0.181.0\atom.exe</code> to <code class="notranslate">C:\Users\Michael\AppData\Local\atom\app-0.183.0\atom.exe</code></li>
<li>Close <code class="notranslate">regedit.exe</code></li>
<li>Close and reopen <code class="notranslate">explorer.exe</code></li>
<li>Double clicking files works again!</li>
</ol>
<p dir="auto">Could this registry item be updated when atom is updated?</p>
<p dir="auto">Currently it is not so easy to assign atom as default editor on windows eg for all .css files</p>
<p dir="auto">the path to atom.exe is changed with every update.</p>
<p dir="auto">no exe in C:\Users\hebbet\AppData\Local\atom<br>
