Opening files sometimes makes CB to 'crash'/not work

(1/1)

Decrius:
When CB is not opened or loaded in anyway, and I double-click a file associated with CB, it opens CB and shows the begin screen instead of the file I double clicked. Also the explorer window (where the file is located) is 'busy', as it shows white and no files. When I click the window away it gives me an windows error message of explorer and resets the explorer.

This happens on WinXP, latest nightly build.

orel:
To help finding a solution or pointing an eventual bug, you should give us the type of file you try to open, and if possible, post the file or a link to it in this forum to allow to reproduce.

Decrius:
With project files, but sometimes even normal files. Sometimes it 'crashes' sometimes not, for most kind of files.

Jenna:
The error is known, but cannot be reproduced on all systems.
Look (for example) here.

Might be a DDE problem, but that's just a guess.

JGM:
Yep, it seems to only be on windows, because on linux I don't have that kind of problem, It would be better to parse the arguments list on both platforms.
