Windows: File association problem

[urmilparikh]

I associated *.md files to be opened with MarkRight, but when I double-click on any .md file, MarkRight starts with a blank document.

Which OS are you using? I can associate .md files with MarkRight correctly so that a double click opens the application. Also I can't seem to find Electron as title anywhere in the app.

Ah - windows. I sadly don't have a windows machine to test this on with me right now. I'll see what I can do!

In the meantime - if you could debug where this is coming from, it would help the project a lot

November and still no fix. Pretty annoying.

@BlackBellamy this is free open source software open to anyone who wants to help.
If the bug is annoying you and windows is your primary machine, how about fixing it and submitting a PR? 🙂

would be really useful if this could be fixed! this is still the only working minimalistic github-flavour md-editor out there.

@dvcrn can you point me in the right direction? it should be rather easy, right? wherever the parameters are parsed something is going wrong such that markdown doesnt load the document
