That says the installer sets up an association.  Indeed it does. The
registry is just what you would expect.  The only catch is
xxx.jar does not work.

Perhaps there are more that two registry entries that have to be set
up for this to work, and the installer presumes the others are already
ok.

I have done a lot of digging on the Internet.  Lots on pre Windows 10,
but nothing other than reinstall the JRE on Windows 10.  This works
for some people, but not others (like me).  If I only knew what a
working registry looks like, I could write something to repair it.
