I have it set in Windows 98SE and Windows XP so that when I double Click on a .dat File it Opens in AVI Preview and Starts playing just like when we all Open them from in K-Lite, it works fine in Windows 98SE but in Windows XP it wont Open any File unless its in the C:Drive, if it is C:\my shared folder when I Double Click on the .dat File it will give me an Error Message saying "Unable to Open C:\my" but when I Open AVI Preview on its Own and Select the File from the Program itself it Will Open the File just Fine, so it seems 2 me that it wont Open any File that is in a Directory that has a Space sumwhere in the File Name, does or has anyone else had this Problem or a Fix? Ive had it 4 Absolutly Ages but im New 2 the Forums and it Only Just Occurred 2 me that I Might Find a Solution here :D so I hope sum1 can help me

right click a dat file and choose properties, then change the default program to whatever you want, hit apply
I have my bin files open in videolan as most are movies, and I have cue files open with daemon tools

could it be the file you are trying to preview, have you tried a different file?
