I used to right click on a HTML file and choose to 'open with Frontpage'
from the available options, but it has disappeared!!

How do I get what I want back into the 'right' click' options?

I realise this may not be the correct newsgroup to ask about this, but I
thought that other FP users may have had the same issue and may know how to
fix it.

Browse to a html file with Windows Explorer.
Right click on the file
Select Open With.
If FP is not in the list, select other.
In the list that opens, scroll to FrontPage, select it, check the box "always use this application" and then
click OK.

Tried that, but I get an error telling me the file is "not a valid Win32
application" !
