I am lookin for a good tip about to add NEW->Rich Text Document for Windows 7.

I lost that after installing OpenOffice...

...found many tips, but mostly for XP and Vista, doe all it says but no results so far...

[MasterJake777]

@marcelobetel It should be the same on Windows 7 too. Just find ".rtf" in the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and create the shell and the command.

Do i have to restart my pc before this takes effect ?

[MasterJake777]

@n0b0dy241 Maybe, I didn't though. Try and see.

hey jake i was wondering what you did to make the "Open Command From Here"

Please help :D

[MasterJake777]

I didn't make that command, it comes with Windows Vista (if you hold shift and right-click an open spot you'll get it). :)

You can make a copy of it on XP though, but I'm not sure how.

@n0b0dy241 No. It immediatly takes effect.

[marcelobetel]

@MasterJake777 Yeah, I know, but this was not working at all!

I just want to thank you for your help, and point you that maybe have the same problem that I was fighting agains here for more then 8 hours...

The big issue was that OpenOffice installation, I think...
