Double-Clicking on .jar files in Windows

[NTICompass]

I installed OpenJDK x64 on Windows 10 Pro (64-bit). When I double-clicked on a .jar file, Windows asked me to find a program to open it.

Can this registry key be added to the installer?

P.S. I managed to fix it by running the following in an Administrator command prompt:

$ assoc .jar=jarfile
$ ftype jarfile="C:\OpenJDK\jre\bin\javaw.exe" -jar "%1" %*

Installer supports registry keys when running "As Administrator". Please
see this issue for details -
