    .file association is OK.

    Doubtful. Your symptoms are exactly those of a windows system with mis-configured associations.

    Please post your output from running assoc .pl and ftype Perl

      This thread is reminding me why I use Cygwin/X and run Perl stuff from there. That is when I am forced to use Windows at least..

        And for counterpoint; I won't touch cygwin with a bargepole. It is the worst of all worlds as far as I'm concerned.

        What is your path set to?

        Why did you switch from d:\tmp\scripts to c:\windows\system32 to run those commands?

    Your .pl file association is correct in regards to executing the script, but is incorrect/incomplete because it doesn't "see" the args passed to the script.

    Look up the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\perl.exe\shell\open\command entry in the registry. The value should be "C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1". I suspect that yours is missing the "%1"

    EDIT: Sorry, I just saw your .pl association post. It looks correct.
