Re: PHP .msi installer nightmare

I recently reinstalled php 5.2.2 on vista using the .msi installer.

In the "Choose Items to Install" dialog shown by the installer, I
foolishly enabled:
PHP->Program->Script Executable->Register *.php files to
automatically open with PHP.

Now every time I type a URL that ends with .php in Firefox or IE, the
browser pops up a "Save or Run" dialog box instead rendering the
output in the browser window.

I've removed and reinstalled PHP several times, to no avail. Does
anybody know how to undo "Register *.php files to automatically open
with PHP"?

Less dangerous than editing the registry directly, from a command prompt type:

assoc .php=

(just press enter after the = sign). This removes the association with ..php files.
