Just seen a QT error message flashing by on Server 2008 SP2, although the report seems to have been created fine. The error message said that "tzutil.exe" could not be found, as that tool doesn't seem to exist on Windows NT 6.0, yet.

I used tzutil to get timezone data, if it fails for some reason another method is used.

Had conflicting info if it was available on nt 6.0 kernels, so i will add in a check to see if tzutil exists, and if not to just skip that line of code and use backup method.

Thanks for letting me know.

**EDIT**
Made the changes in the code for the next MRP143 and Query Tool v121 to skip TZUtil.exe if kernel 6.0 is detected and use alternative method(s) to determine the values...

It takes vision to see what you could achieve, but it is rewarding when you can make that vision a reality.

Finally on windows 11
There are two issues so far:
the default action for images is print and I have to right click open with windows photo viewer each time
OSD indicator for caps lock not showing even though the hotkey features driver is installed and the option is ticked in display driver properties

The PhotoViewer option in MRP just sets the image associations, as it is not possible to 'force' set them to open with PhotoViewer i have tried several times but the OS just overrides them...

When you right click a image file .jpg for example you get the menu asking what to do, one is open with , this should then lead to a sub menu 'choose another app', (or words to that effect), to find PhotoViewer in the list, select that and then tick the box to 'always use this action' , it should set that until you change it or some other image viewer program is installed that alters the settings.

I know it a bit of a work-around but not found anything yet that fully sets the associations to PhotoViewer that actually works..

As for the OSD part, that is not anything in MRP so i cant help with that, sorry.

I think it's because the photos app is removed, so the file associations with it are gone
but there must be some reg key which set the default app for some file types, no ??

I have tried several methods that say the script/commands will set the PhotoViewer as default application to the image associations, even the much praised PowerShell - that too fails to do what it says.

The PhotoViewer option sets all the registry areas that 'should' set the associations to P/Viewer but for some reason the OS refuses to honour them.

I've used this script, and it just works.
I can then set Windows PhotoViewer as the default application in PC settings.

Code:

Both scripts do same thing as once set/run you still have to tell the OS to use Photo Viewer as default program.

It takes vision to see what you could achieve, but it is rewarding when you can make that vision a reality.

The default image viewer ie 'Photo Viewer' now is set properly when you use that option for image file associations for Photo Viewer, it does set 100% in Windows 10 , it should also for Windows 11 if i got things right

.bmp, .png, .jpg, .jprg, .tiff and a few others now when the image is double clicked *should* open in Photo Viewer.
