in reply to Command Line Options - Perl on Win32

See Re: Can't pass parameters in Win32 Perl Scripts. Also, before trying to fix it, have a look at the association before and after, as pKai suggests, so maybe we can nail it down to what exactly is the symptom.

Especially interesting would be the output of ftype perl (or whatever name .pl scripts are linked to.

    Sorry to trouble you all. I just checked the registry entry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Perl\shell\Open\command" and disovered the execution line contained '-s', which negates Getopt processing. Thanks also, Corion, for the page reference.
