Fixing Hypergrid Link Associations

Are you interested in changing which viewer opens a specific hypergridd link?

You can and it just requires some simple registry edits.
There are three or four entries you’ll need to change, one per protocol.
Viewer name isnt really important, its mostly cosmetic.

Hops are a firestorm-specific grid link.

HOP:
VIEWER NAME: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\hop\shell\open – FriendlyAppName
APPLICATION LOCATION: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\hop\shell\open\command – Default

Secondlife:
VIEWER NAME: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\secondlife\shell\open – FriendlyAppName
APPLICATION LOCATION: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\secondlife\shell\open\command – Default

X-grid-info:
VIEWER NAME: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\x-grid-info\shell\open – FriendlyAppName
APPLICATION LOCATION: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\x-grid-info\shell\open\command – Default

X-grid-location-info:
VIEWER NAME: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\x-grid-location-info\shell\open – FriendlyAppName
APPLICATION LOCATION: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\x-grid-location-info\shell\open\command – Default

Format of the ‘default’ link registry key is always:
“C:\Program Files\Singularity\SingularityViewer.exe” -url “%1”
%1 is always replaced with the url you are choosing to open
