If you want to open an msg Email file with the extension .msg, Outlook 2003 will be started with some parameters. Therefore you can find the following registry keys:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\msgfile\shell\Open\command\(standard)
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\msgfile\shell\Open\command\command
The first one points to the "outlook.exe" with the parameter /f "%1". This starts Outlook with the information to open the mail. But the "command" key has the following value:
%]gAVn-}f(ZXfeAR6.jiOUTLOOKFiles>ir@X7cr$%@u$}&V7{4p' /f "%1"
Can anybody tell me what exactly this is good for?
I'm writing an vsto Outlook Addin for which I need to modify these keys. In case I modify the "standard" key, Outlook will be started normaly without using my alteration of the key. If I also modify the "command" key Outlook does not even start anymore.
Only if I delete the "command" key everything works fine as expected. But without knowing what the key is good for, this cannot be a solution.
