Clpfiles

When d/click the .clp file it opens the

clipbd viewer blank?

Any help appreciated?

It appears the only way to open a .CLP file is to run clipbrd.exe, and

use File menu> Open to select a saved .CLP file. I see the same

behaviour as you when I double-click a .CLP file. The registry entries

are correct as far as I can see, and adding the full path to the

shell\open\command does not affect it.

I vaguely recall it working in Win95 or 98, but I don't have those handy

right now to check. I would not be surprised if some patch of a

security vulnerability caused this reduced functionality. I recall

there was a malformed CLP file buffer overflow vulnerability in a Corel

app a few years ago

It does not work in Win98SE and WinMe as well?

clipbrd.exe was included in WinXP, 2000, ME, 98 and probably 95 and Windows

for Workgroups. It no longer exists under Windows 7.

I've discovered a lot of the old 95/98 files don't actually

need the registry and thus installs, so that might be worth

trying. I still use Cardfile from my old win98 machine. Only

thing it won't do is dial a phone numbe & I don't care about

that. Con: the tld .crd is also used for an XP program

(Cardspace, I think it is) so expect association issues here &

there.

....but you *can* copy the XP version of clipbrd.exe to the Vista or

Seven system32 folder, and it works....at least on 32-bit Windows.
