Until I updated to Calibre 0.7.47 (from 0.7.42), I was able to set Calibre's e-book viewer as my default viewer for epub.

I'm running Windows 7 x64 with SP1.

Now, when I use the "Open With..." dialog and select e-book viewer in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Calibre2\", it doesn't work.
I can browse to the ebook-viewer.exe and click on it, but it doesn't appear in the "Open With..." window.

I have edited the "FileOpenWith" setting in the registry, to no avail.

Is this a bug or am I missing something?
