    Question: Why doesn't the DisplayApp method launch the application as set by thirdparty apps like Thumbcal, and other apps that "override" the default WM apps?

    Do we need to override the DisplayApp method in our own scripts? It is possible to obtain what the default application really is?

    TIA!

    I don't know off the top of my head how to determine the default apps. Maybe registry settings. If I knew I could build that into the DisplayApp function so it automatically launched the right one. If someone else knows please let me know as that is one less thing to go hunting down.

    @Joel:

    Default apps are in the registry somewhere! At the very minimum Contacts is...

    I'll try find where for you if you'd like...

    EDIT: Found them Joel... Thought you might be interested.

    They are all located in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\


    Each folder contains the reg key for the default. :MSCONTACTS is obviously for contacts etc... As above you can see iContact is my current App for contacts.

    Cheers.

    Good find Dickenz! This is promising. I would love to run the default Displayapp that most plugins have coded and have my specific app run instead of having to change each plugin.

    before posting I think that we should read the caption, to prevent the forum to be a dustbin, am I wrong?

    best regards

    Thanks dickenz, I've added support for this in for next release - appointments, contacts, tasks. So DisplayApp() hopefully will show the correct one. In fact, here is a test exe - can you please see if it works for your custom apps.
