This is not the case for me. Pov-Ray is closed when I doubleclick the file 
so Pov should always load it.

Take the file "Bic Patch.pov", in messages is an INI file error:
Bad option syntax or error opening .INI/.DEF file 'Patch.pov'
A tab for a new file is opened with the title 'Bic'

I have the feeling it's a problem with th file association. In application 
for the action I have the line:
D:\Graphics\POV-Ray\bin\pvengine.exe /EDIT

(should have mentioned this in the first post, wasn't realy awake this 
morning)
