Hello,
if PhotoFiltre Portable is run with administrator rights (mainly happens for users who have UAC disabled), it creates the following registry keys:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.pfi
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.pfs
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.pfv
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfi
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfi\DefaultIcon
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfi\Shell
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfi\Shell\Open
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfi\Shell\Open\Command
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfs
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfs\DefaultIcon
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfs\Shell
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfs\Shell\Open
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfs\Shell\Open\Command
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfv
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfv\DefaultIcon
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfv\Shell
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfv\Shell\Open
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\PhotoFiltre.Pfv\Shell\Open\Command
I conducted the test with PhotoFiltre Portable 7.0 under 64-bit Windows 7 SP1.
Please fix this bug.
I also detect some of the above described registry keys under Windows XP SP3. But I want examine this problem in more datail on another clean PC. If I can confirm this failure, then I fix it and offer you a revised version. In this version is also a language problem fixed (please look at my post here).

But in this case the appropriate *.reg files won't be saved in the folder Data\settings. But it could be, that the app saves some important settings in these *.reg files.
They're file associations. They're not important.

Thank you for this tip. Therefore I can conclude, that a registry key in the form of "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.abc" is related to a file association.
Please can you give me also an answer to my question regarding renaming with NSIS (please look in my post here)?
I have solved the problem with these registry keys. I also have solved a problem with the language.

Fix verified. Thank you!
This is now fixed in 7.0 Rev 2.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
