herrerarivera - 24 May 2008 03:21 GMT
I am running Norton Ghost 14.0 under Windows Vista Home Premium with the
lovely SP1.

There use to be an option when you right click a v2i file on the
windows explorer, this option said Mount and I think there was a Open
option too. The one I really need is the Mount one.

Anyway, this option is gone, I am not sure if it is the SP1, I have
tried context menu editors and viewers and the shell registry entry is
there and it is not disable by the "legacy" entry option on the
registry, I believe it has the right command too, attached is my
registry entry and a screen shot of my context menu:

The file association seems to be fine. I'll merge the REG in my test system tomorrow and see if I can repro the issue.

To check if this problem is caused by third-party shell extensions, follow "Method 2" in this article: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/slowrightclick.htm

I can't repro it in my system though!
