R339 Bug Doubleclick on file is different then press ENTER

I am running Vista Home Premium 64 bit.
Doubleclicking on a jpeg will open it in Windows Photo Gallery

I added this to the registry to open a jpegfile with the FastStone Image Viewer:
----------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile\shell]
@="FastStone"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile\shell\FastStone]
@="View with FastStone Image Viewer"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\jpegfile\shell\FastStone\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\FastStone Image Viewer\\FSViewer.exe\" \"%1\""
----------------

This works correctly in the explorer, but when I doubleclick on a jpeg in FreeCommander, it will still open the jpeg in Windows Photo Gallery.

When I press ENTER instead of doubleclicking on the jpeg, it does open in FastStone Image Viewer.

So pressing ENTER is in this case not the same as doubleclicking.

I confirm that Doubleclick on file is different then press ENTER (on XP and Vista).

Doubleclick on a Excel-template *.xlt opens the *.xlt-file while ENTER correctly opens a new *.xls-file based on the template (same with *.dot-files).

Problem seems resolved in version 2008.6.0.342.

Good work!
