Forum LiberKey

Hello,

I want to use the "KeyFileAssoc" application during the autostart.
So, when the system starts the application starts too, but I always have to double-click on the tray icon to activate the file associations.

Does a parameter exist which automatically activates the file associations when I start the apllication?
I don't want to always start the LiberKey application, the file association apllication suffices my needs for about 80%...


Thanks in advance.
Regards!

Yes, "/apply"

Code: Select all

KeyFileAssoc.exe /apply


There is also an easier way to do this:

In version 5, go to the LiberKey Tools --> LiberKey Configuration --> LiberKey Tools
in this screen you can change the the actions related to "Associate files to portable application" during startup and shutdown of the LiberKey.

No need for a shortcut or autorun entry (unless you don't want the to run the LiberKey menu)

Thank you guys!
That's exactly what I searched for

I have one additionl question: exists a parameter to close the "KeyFileAssoc.exe" smoothly within a batch file?
Of course I have a option to end the task with the taskmanager but if I do this I always get a message that the associations have been restored after I restart the program.

Thanks a lot.
Regards

and

KeyFileAssoc.exe /restore

Disable file associations but keep KFA process.

The KFA process doesn't be kill because a work is done at its closure (restoration of default associations).
