.php files are not associated with Zend Studio - zend-studio

after reinstalling ZS 9.0.1 on Vista i can't make .php files be opened with it by default.
The files are opening in another program (EditPlus in my case) instead of ZS. This happens when clicking files on file system (Desktop) and in Remote Connections.
When i try to change properties of .php files in Windows, SZ does not appear in the list of programs, even if i click "Browse" and locate the .exe in Program Files.
The only way to open the files is to drag them to ZS.
How this can be fixed?
Thank you!

You can map file extension to editors by this
src

Yes but that's not what the link Mr Coder posted tells you to do. You need to go to Window -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> File Associations, add/select the extension, select the PHP editor, and click default. This will make it use that editor. I just found this answer and did that, and it works correctly now.

To fix this:
First, window > preference > general > editor > file associations > add(.php) > php(default)
Next, select PHP file in remote system explore or etc. > click right button > open with > Select Default editor.
The last action is very important.

Open folder as project in PhpStorm

When I install PhpStorm from JetBrains Toolbox app I do not have an option to open folders as project when right clicking
Sadly JetBrains Toolbox App does not provide such functionality. Only standalone installer has an option to make them right now. You will have to either use that... or create such entries manually.
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/TBX-2478 -- watch this ticket (star/vote/comment) to get notified with any progress.
To add an entry to the Windows Explorer's right-click menu:
you can use FileTypesMan by NirSoft or a similar tool.
or create such entry manually, e.g. see this comment for a basic .bat file: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-114307#comment=27-2125363 (at very least it lists Registry keys where to create such an entry).
I found this from Jet Brains :
Click Open on the Welcome screen or select File | Open from the main menu.
In the Select Path dialog, select the directory that contains the project to open.
Drag the desired project from your file chooser right to the Open Project dialog without locating it there. The respective file in the dialog will be found automatically.
Specify whether you want to open the project in a new window, close the current project and reuse the existing window, or open the new project in the same window with the current one. Refer to the Opening multiple projects section for details.
and for the command line you could use this :
<PhpStorm> <path_to_the_project folder>
See Open files from the command line for more information.

Force Firefox not to change file extension?

Is it possible to force Firefox not to change the file extension of a file the user downloads? Currently I have the problem that I have a .reg file to download, but Firefox, even though in the Download dialog it says "Text file (*.reg)", saves it as a .reg.txt file, which is highly annoying. How to fix this?
You could try to do the following things:
1.) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-firefox-behavior-when-open-file
Maybe extension (in your case .reg) is associated with Notepad and you could changed it in Options/Applications
a) Click the menu button and choose Options.
b) Select the Applications panel.
c) The Applications panel will display. Select the type of file for which you want to change the default action.
2.) https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=511624
This is an old bug, but if you use the affected version of firefox...
When you right click on a link to a batch file and click save as, it will allow you to save it, but it automatically adds .txt to the end of the filename without informing you.
You are unable to save it as .bat
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Right click on a batch file link
2.Click save as
3.Save it
Actual Results:
filename is file.bat.txt
Seems to be a Firefox on Windows bug. My coworker was implementing download of .reg files and I use Firefox, I tested for him and got a .reg.txt. Just renaming it after download was sufficient to make the .reg work, but I got curious if that would happen on Linux also.
Grabbed my laptop where I have Ubuntu installed and the file was downloaded with the correct extension (just didn't run because .reg is a windows extension, it did open in the text editor). It was not automatically renamed as a .txt.

can't override syntax highlighting in sublime text 3

I manually installed a package awhile back for ST3 that had additional syntax highlighting languages. I have since removed it, and for the files it affected selected 'Open all with current extension as..' to now be Java. However when I re-open them they still default to the old package language. If I open up the syntax highlighting menu both languages are actually highlighted. If I reselect Java it will be correct until I close and re-open any file with that extension again.
Can anyone explain how I can either force it to always stay in Java or remove the other language all together?
Go to Preferences -> Browse Packages and navigate to the User folder. There should be a file in there named OtherLanguage.sublime-settings. Delete that file, restart Sublime, and you should be all set. If that still doesn't work, look for a Java.sublime-settings file in the same directory. Delete that as well, restart, and you should be back to the default behavior. Open a file with the extension, select View -> Syntax -> Open all with current extension as... and select Java. This will create a new Packages/User/Java.sublime-settings file, so don't delete it!

VS2008: Disable asking whether to reload files changed outside the IDE

I have a Visual Studio 2008 project where some code files are generated with each build (a parser, integrated via MSBuild aka editing the *.csproj file).
VS does not know about the generated nature of these files (i.e. they are not the result of a "Custom Tool). So they "change" with every build, naturally. And VS2008 asks me after every build if I would like to reload those files:
This file has been modified outside the source
Do you want to reload it?
That would be ok if I had one of those files opened and in front of me, but I get these modal dialogs even with none of the code files opened.
So my question is: Is there a way to disable this dialog, per project, per solution or globally?
Thanks!
For VS2008: Tools > Options > Documents > Detect when a file is changed outside the environment
For VS2010/2012/2013/2015: Tools > Options > Environment > Documents > Detect when a file is changed outside the environment
In Visual Studio Pro 2012
There is an "Auto-Load changes, if saved" that works.
Tools > Options > Environment > Documents > Detect when a file is changed > Auto-Load changes, if saved
Because a picture paints a thousand words...
I generate source files on every build, and I don't (normally) get a "file has been modified" message if the file is not open in the editor.
I was getting it just now, however, on a closed file. (That's why I went searching for this question.)
I think that's a bug. The file seems to get wedged sometimes. (But this is the first time it has happened in about a year.)
I think I've found a work-around just now: Open the offending file and then close it again.
The point is, you shouldn't need to turn off changed file detection.
This is an old post, but what worked for me was slightly different and I wanted to share:
This file has been modified outside the source
Go to Tools -> Options -> Debugging -> General and uncheck "Require source files to exactly match the original version". This allows you to use source code which is not the same as original version.

Explore containing folder instead of open containing folder

I use Visual Studio to do a lot of my coding. I find the open containing folder feature quite helpful. But I don't want the folder to be "opened" by the windows explorer, instead I want to "explore" the folder -- you know, get the nice little frame showing me all the other folders on the left hand side. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thank you,
Rohit
When invoking ShellExecute(), use the explore verb instead of the open verb: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb762153%28VS.85%29.aspx.
Edit: If you don't mean programmatically, open Windows Explorer, go to Tools -> Folder Options, select the File Types tab, locate the Folder entry in the list (not File Folder!), click Advanced, and set "explore" as default instead of "open".
There really isn't much difference anymore between 'explore' and 'open' if you're talking about a folder. They both open the same window, just with different options active. When you 'open' the folder, you're only one click away (on my system at least) from seeing the folder tree as well- just click the "Folders" button in the toolbar.
