Originally opened as adobe/brackets#5308


Description:
On Windows, there are two Open With entries for Brackets Sprint 31 if you had Sprint 30 installed before installing Sprint 31. Maybe related to adobe/brackets#4882

Repro using Brackets Sprint 30 & 31 on two Win 7 x64 English machines (one an clean native machine, and one a clean VM). UTR on Mac 10.8.

Repro steps:

  1. Install Brackets 30
  2. Go to Windows Explorer > rt-click a .txt file > Open With
    -> Has Brackets 30

bk-one-open-with-menu-item

  1. Open Brackets 30 and close it
  2. Install Brackets 31
    check Open With

Actual results:
There are two Brackets Sprint 31 entries

bk-two-open-with-menu-items

Expected results:
There are entries for Brackets Sprint 31 and Brackets Sprint 30

Workaround:
Ignore the duplicate menu items.

I can reproduce on my Win7 machine. Oddly enough, even though both menu entries say "Brackets Sprint 31", one actually launches Sprint 31, while the other launches Sprint 30!

Found it. The problem was that the displayed "friendly app name" was stored in a single Registry location and associated with "Brackets.exe".

Brackets-shell Pull Request #337 fixes this by registering the friendly app name with the ProgID instead.

Fixed. @dalcala can you please confirm and close this bug in the next Brackets build?
