When I install 4.52 and I select 'only image' association (or even 'none') it messes up the default action for when you click on a .ttf (truetype font).
It makes i_view open .ttf as being a preview picture instead of keeping the windows fontview utility as default.
There is however no mention of .ttf in the installer list that you can select or deselect to opt out.
Nor is there a mention of this in the changes list incidentally.
The obvious advantage of windows fontview is that there is a button to install the font after you looked at the preview, but regardless, irfanview should not associate unannounced and unwanted. And who knows what else it associates with that is not in the list.
All this on W7 x64 but I'm not sure that plays a role, although, maybe w10 is more protective of such unwanted behavior?
