I usually use that very location; I look up the TWS file association, since that is an extensions unlikely to be "stolen" by something else.

A more reliable way then HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/... should be:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\TEXTPAD.EXE

Unfortunately, that isn't always there for TextPad...on my XP Pro system it's missing from that location, for example. That's why I tend to go afetr the TWS association.
