To reproduce:
1. Install jdk or jre 1.5.
2. Go registry editor, and the following entry is missing from the registry
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jar]
3. Also go to the entry
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Jarfile\Shell\open\command]
c:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.5.0\bin\javaw.exe" -jar "%1" %*
Which the above is created to allow the users to double click and execute the .jar files, however, without the .jar file extention association double clicking jar file will not execute.
