fooassoc.exe

Where does it get the list of "available" extensions from?

Only I installed foobar2000 lite to floppy, no start menu shortcut, and somehow when I launch foobar associations from the start menu now, it only shows the extensions available in the lite version?

Bug?

Cheers

IIRC, Case said it looks for .dlls in components dir.

fooassoc.exe shows the file extensions given the input components which are avalaible and they depend on foobar2000's version (I mean lite, normal or special).
If you use foobar2000 lite then it's normal that only the extensions available in the lite version are shown. But if you "manually" add an input component, next time you run fooassoc.exe, another extension corresponding to that component will be added.
Why should fooassoc.exe show file extensions that are anyway excluded because no relevant component is installed? Why do you think it is a bug?
