When installing php on win32 it creates a registry record at "My Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\" named php.exe

the problem is that the value of "My Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\php.exe\shell\open\command\" is default 'C:\php\php.exe "%1"' it means it only passes to php.exe the first argument = the name of the file and it do NOT pass any other arguments.

The solution is (maybe can be in a newer version of win32 php) to set the value to 'C:\php\php.exe -q "%1" %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9'

(maybe without the -q argument)

with 'C:\php\php.exe -q "%1" %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9' set the command line arguments cannot contain spaces, it should be rather 

'C:\php\php.exe -q "%1" "%2" "%3" "%4" "%5" "%6" "%7" "%8" "%9"' to allow the possibility to escape arguments containing spaces into "'s
