detailed description

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided for more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for setting the default software used by the device, which facilitates the setting operation of the default software. Referring to FIG. 1, the method includes:

S100: Detect all installed software of a predetermined type in the device.

Currently detected software types mainly include video players, music players, image viewing software, input method software, email sending and receiving software, browsers, download software, and compression software.

Generally, each software has a resource type that it supports to play or display, such as a file type or a URL (Uniform Resource Locator, uniform resource locator) type. Common file types include video file types, audio file types, image file types, email file types, and file types supported by browsers. Among them, video file types include .avi (audio-video interleaved format), .wmv, .mp4 and other formats, audio file types include .mp3, .mva and other formats, and image file types include .jpg (Joint Photographic Experts Group), .png (image file storage format), .bmp (bitmap) and other formats, mail file types include .eml format; browser supports display file types include .htm (Hypertext Markup Language), .html, .mht and other formats.

Certain types of software, such as browsers and emails, also support URL types. Browsers support ftp (file transfer protocol), http (hypertext transfer protocol); emails support mailto, etc.

When performing detection operations, this embodiment provides at least the following two detection methods:

method one,

For software with configuration files, a configuration file library is established for the software, and equipment is detected according to information in the configuration file library to obtain installed software with configuration files in the device.

It should be noted that this embodiment will pre-establish a configuration file library for software with configuration files in the device, such as a dat file library, and configure information of various software in the configuration file library, including software installation paths, software support File suffix type and/or URL type, software paths and parameters used when various types of resources are running, etc.

In this embodiment, when a configuration file library is established for software with configuration files, the information of the software with configuration files is collected, configuration items of the software are generated according to the collected information, and the configuration items are recorded in the configuration file library, wherein the Configuration items include at least:

Configuration items indicating the file types and/or URL types supported by the software;

A configuration item indicating the installation path of the software;

A configuration item that indicates code statements used by software to access resources.

The following takes 360 Safe Browser as an example to illustrate the information configured for the software in the configuration file library. For example, the information configured for 360 Security Browser in the configuration file library can be expressed as follows:

Among them, the fileassociation (file association) node indicates the file type supported by the software, and the urlassociation (URL association) node indicates the URL type supported by the software. In the above example, the file types supported by 360 Secure Browser include: .htm, .html, .shtml ,.xht,.xhtml,.crx, supported URL types include 360seurl,ftp,htmlfile,http,https.

The progid parameter in the fileassociation node and the urlassociation node indicates the name of the progid node corresponding to a certain type supported by the software.

For example, the name of the progid node corresponding to the node <fileassociation ext=".htm" progid="360seURL"rate="1"/> is 360seURL.

In the progid node, it includes name (name) item, defaulticon (icon path) item and shellopencmd (code statement used to access resources) item. The assocvar parameter in the defaulticon item and the shellopencmd item corresponds to the assocvar node.

In the assocvar node, include the regkey parameter, which indicates the installation path (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppPaths\360se6.exe\) of the software (360 Security Browser) specified in the registry. According to the installation path in this parameter, you can know the path of %assocvar0%\360se.exe in the defaulticon item and shellopencmd item, so that you can use the code statement in this item to access resources (such as htm files).

In addition, if the configuration information of the software in the device changes, for example, there is newly released software or the software is upgraded, this embodiment will update the configuration file library in time, such as adding information related to the newly released software in the configuration file library. Configuration information, or add configuration information that some new versions of software have changed relative to older versions of software, etc.

In this embodiment, the information of the software is added in the configuration file library in advance for each software that needs to be detected, and the software is detected according to the information in the configuration file library. If there is no information about the software in the configuration file library, the software cannot be The software detects it.

Method two,

For software without a configuration file, call the specified API (application interface) in the device, use the specified API to enumerate the installed software in the device, and obtain the installed software in the device without a configuration file.

Software without configuration files, such as input method software, cannot use the configuration file library to detect these software because there is no configuration information of these software in the configuration file library, then the present embodiment calls the specified API to detect these software, A given API can detect one or more types of software.

S102: Display the detected software on a user interface, and receive a selection command returned through the user interface.

This embodiment provides a dedicated user interface for setting and managing the default software, and the user interface provides a dedicated interface for configuring and managing the default software.

Information such as icons of detected software, software names, and current default software for each type of software can be displayed on the user interface. Exemplarily, when the user clicks a software icon on the user interface, one or more selection commands are generated and transmitted to the device, and each selection command indicates that the software corresponding to the clicked icon is the default software selected by the user.

S104: Obtain the default software of each type of software selected according to the selection command.

For each type of software for which the user actively sets the default software, the default software of each type of software is learned according to the received selection command.

For various types of software for which the user has not actively set the default software, keep the system's default software for this type of software.

S106: Establish a correspondence between resources supported by the software of the type to which the default software belongs and the default software, so as to use the correspondence to set the default software to run the resource. Wherein, the software corresponding to the resource is the default software for running the resource.

The above-mentioned resources include resources of various file types and/or resources of URL type, and the resources supported by the software indicate that the software can perform various operation operations on the resources, such as opening, editing, playing and displaying.

For the software actively selected by the user, setting the software as the default software of this type of software in the device includes at least the following two methods:

The first way is for software with configuration files. This embodiment establishes a configuration file library for software with configuration files, and sets the corresponding items in the registry according to the configuration items of the default software recorded in the configuration file library, so as to establish the resources supported by the type of software to which the default software belongs and the resources of the default software. The corresponding relationship refers to associating the resources supported by the software of the type to which the default software belongs to the default software, so that the device will automatically call the default software to run the resource when needed (for example, when the resource needs to be opened) through this corresponding relationship.

The second way is for software that does not have a configuration file. In this embodiment, a specified API in the device is invoked, and the specified API is used to establish a corresponding relationship between resources supported by the type of software to which the default software belongs and the default software.

Still taking the above-mentioned 360 security browser as an example to illustrate the specific method of setting the corresponding items in the registry according to the configuration items of the default software recorded in the configuration file library under the first method above.

When setting the default software, for the installation path of the software, set the value corresponding to the progid in the registry to the value in the progid of the above fileassociation and urlassociation, for example,

Obtain the value of the software installation path %assocvar0% according to the regkey in assocvar, then set the value corresponding to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppPaths\360se6.exe\ to C:\Users\auto\AppData in the registry \Roaming\360se6\Application\360se.exe.

For the file types supported by the software, according to the Fileassociation node in the configuration file (such as resources in .htm format), make the following settings:

1. Set the value of HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.htm\Progid to 360seURL

2. Set the value of HKCU\Software\Classes\.htm\Progid to 360seURL

3. Set the value of HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.htm\UserChoice\Progid to 360seURL on the Win7 system.

For the URL types supported by the software, according to the urlassociation node in the configuration file (such as resources in http format), set as follows:

On the win7 system, set the value of HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Associations\UrlAssociations\http\UserChoice\Progid to 360seURL

In addition, for the code statement used when the software accesses resources, set the values of the DefaultIcon item and the command item in the registry to the specified values of the defaulticon item and the shellopencmd item in the configuration file.

The value of the defaulticon item in the configuration file is "%assocvar0%\360se.exe,5", and the value of the shellopencmd item is ""%assocvar0%\360se.exe"--"%1"", then the corresponding value in the registry can be Items are set as follows:

1. Set the value of HKLM\Software\Classes\360seURL\DefaultIcon\[default] to c:\users\auto\appdata\roaming\360se6\Application\360se.exe,5

2. Set the value of HKCU\Software\Classes\360seURL\DefaultIcon\[default] to c:\users\auto\appdata\roaming\360se6\Application\360se.exe,5

3. Set the value of HKLM\Software\Classes\shell\open\command\ to "C:\Users\auto\AppData\Roaming\360se6\Application\360se.exe"--"%1"

4. Set the value of HKCU\Software\Classes\shell\open\command\ to "C:\Users\auto\AppData\Roaming\360se6\Application\360se.exe"--"%1"

From the above, the embodiment of the present invention can obtain all installed software of various types in the device through the technical means of software detection in the device, and then use the user interface to display the detected software to the user and receive the default returned by the user. The software selection command solves the problem of cumbersome operations caused by the user needing to search for various software in the device one by one to set the default software, which greatly facilitates the setting of the default software in the device and the management of the default software by the user.

Another embodiment of the present invention provides a method for setting default software used by a device, which can realize flexible management of the default software. Referring to FIG. 2 , it shows a flowchart of a method for detecting whether default software has been modified provided by an embodiment of the present invention, including the following steps:

S200: After performing the active setting of the default software in the early stage, start the setting of the default software used by the device again.

For example, when a certain software selected by the user is set as the default software through the above steps S100 to S106, and the above step S100 is started again and the user interface is displayed, it indicates that the setting of the default software used by the device is started again.

S204: Determine whether the software is software with a configuration file, if yes, execute step S206, if not, execute step S208.

S206: Detect whether the software ID (identification) recorded in the registry is the same as the software ID of the current actual default software, if the same, confirm that the default software has not been modified, if not, confirm that the default software has been modified, and display it on the user interface Prompt that the default software has been modified.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment, before step S200, a software ID will be generated for the software with a configuration file, and when the software is selected as the default software, the software ID of the selected default software will be recorded in the registry table.

One way to obtain the software ID of the current actual default software is to detect the current actual software corresponding to the resources supported by each type of software, and obtain the current actual default software installation path, wherein the current actual The default software is the software that actually establishes a corresponding relationship with the corresponding resources; if the installation path of the current actual default software is matched with the installation path of each software in the configuration file library, the software that is successfully matched in the configuration file library is the current For the actual software ID of the default software, compare the software ID of the matched software with the software ID recorded in the registry.

Due to the multiple formats of resources that each type of software can support, preferably, in this embodiment, a specified resource is selected from the resources supported by each type of software, and the current actual situation corresponds to the specified resource of each type of software. Relational software for detection.

For example, for video software, only the software that establishes a relationship with video resources in .avi format is detected, audio software only detects software that establishes a relationship with audio resources in .mp3 format, and picture software only detects software that establishes a relationship with .jpg format Software that establishes a corresponding relationship with picture resources, mail software that only detects mail resources in mailto format and establishes a corresponding relationship, browsers that only detects software that establishes a corresponding relationship with http browser resources, and so on.

S208: Call the API specified in the device, and check whether the default software used last time is the same as the current actual default software through the specified API. If they are the same, confirm that the default software has not been modified. If not, confirm that the default software has been modified. A message indicating that the default software has been modified is displayed on the user interface.

After confirming that the default software has been modified, this embodiment can also restore the default software according to the needs of the user, specifically including:

If it is confirmed that the default software has been modified, when receiving the default software recovery command returned through the user interface, for example, when receiving the default software recovery command sent by the user by clicking the recovery button on the user interface, for software with configuration files, Use the software ID of the default software recorded in the registry and the information in the configuration file library to modify the current actual default software to the software corresponding to the software ID recorded in the registry; for software that does not have a configuration file, call the specified API in the device, Restore the default software to the default software in the user's historical usage records. For example, if the default software recorded in the user's historical usage records is the default software used by the user last time, restore the default software to the default software used by the user last time.

From the above, the solution of the embodiment of the present invention can realize the judgment of whether the default software has been modified and the automatic repair of the default software, and the operation is simple and flexible, which is convenient for the user to manage the default software.

Another embodiment of the present invention provides a method for setting default software used by a device, which can lock the default software. When the default software is locked, the probability of the default software being modified is greatly reduced.

Some software has setting items for establishing the corresponding relationship between resources and software, that is, there is an option in these software whether to establish the corresponding relationship between resources and software by default, such as Thunder Kankan has the option of "always keep file association", when When this option is turned on, these software will establish a corresponding relationship between itself and the supported files by default when starting, that is, the software will be set as the default software of the corresponding resource, resulting in the modification of the default software. For this defect, this implementation The example provides the following methods:

Detect whether there is a software with setting items that are used to establish the corresponding relationship between resources and software in the same type of software except the default software; when there is software with setting items that are turned on, generate a prompt message whether to close the setting items of the software, and The prompt information is displayed on the user interface; when the closing instruction returned through the user interface is received, the above-mentioned setting items of the software are closed, and the default software is locked. Software lock means to lock the software as the default software.

One way to detect whether there is any software in the same type of software other than the default software that has enabled the setting items for establishing the corresponding relationship between resources and software is: for software with configuration files, according to the configuration file library established for the software information in the software configuration file, search for the information item corresponding to the above setting item in the software configuration file, and judge whether the setting item of the software is enabled according to the found information item; for software that does not have a configuration file, call the API specified in the device to find the software For the information items corresponding to the above setting items, judge whether the execution of the software is enabled or not according to the found information items.

For example, three video player software, Baofengyingyin, QQyingyin, and Kuaibo, are installed in the current device. When the user actively sets Baofengyingyin as the default software, the method provided in this embodiment will detect whether The setting items for establishing the corresponding relationship between resources and software are enabled. For example, according to the configuration information of QQ video and fast broadcast recorded in the configuration file library, it can be judged whether the setting items for establishing the corresponding relationship between resources and software for QQ video and fast broadcast are Enabled, if either of the two softwares has enabled this setting item, the user interface (such as a pop-up window) will prompt the user to choose whether to close the setting item of the two softwares for establishing the corresponding relationship between resources and software. When receiving the closing command of QQ Video and Kuaibo from the user, close the above setting items of these two softwares, so as to realize the lock of Baofeng Video, then QQ Video and Kuaibo can no longer set themselves as the default playback software .

The solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention reduces the probability of the default software being modified through the software locking mechanism, and realizes the protection of the default software.

Yet another embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus 300 for setting default software used by a device. Referring to FIG. 3 , the apparatus 300 includes:

The detection unit 310 is adapted to detect all installed software of a predetermined type in the device.
