If you install 3.98.4 from http://www.ritlabs.com/download/files3/the_bat/thebat_pro_3-98-4.msi it will correctly support Vista associations.

Yes, 3.98.1 is what I have.  I just ommited the last digit in version number.


I updated the instructions with the following text:

If it does not show up in the list:
All reg files assume that The Bat! is installed on system drive in default for The Bat! folder (Program Files\The Bat!\)

If your copy of The Bat! is installed on a drive/partition different from system drive (non-default path) you need to fix the paths to thebat.exe and tbmapi.dll in registry:
Search for all strings in registry containing "%ProgramFiles%\The Bat!" and replace with correct path (i.e. E:\ProgramsFromOldComputer\Bat)
Reopen "Set your default programs" applet.

The solution did not work for me.  I am running The Bat! 3.98.1 -- is it incompatible with the posted solution?

Unfortunately recent 3.98 release (02/27/07) did not fix the problem.  You can find the solution here http://research.implexsoft.com/VistaTheBat/en/

It will probably be a couple of weeks before the next release, so in the mean time you can use the solution described in the article.

Any update on when this will be fixed? 3.95.06 still does not work.

Yes, you are right that The Bat! does not yet support automatic File Types and mailto associations under Windows Vista; but Ritlabs is going to fix this issue in the new version of The Bat!

I just installed TheBat 3.95.1 on Vista RTM & imported all my messages from Xp. Everything seems to be working fine except for one problem - I can't change my mailto: preference from Windows Mail to the TheBat. When I try to change thru File Types, the only program option I get is Windows Mail with no way to select another program & the MAPI handler option under Preferences/Applications doesn't work.

Any ideas?
