Project won't open directly

Scrivener Scrivener for Windows
1

This is a bug I found: every time I double-click a project.scrivx file Scrivener starts with a message box that says that this is not a valid Scrivener project. If I use the “Open…” dialogue it works. This happens almost every single time I try to open a project directly from explorer.

Also, as a sidenote, under Windows 7 it would be really cool if Scrivener would “remember” the last open files when Scrivener is pinned to the Taskbar (just like Word does, for example).

What version are you running? There was a bug two versions back that prevented the automatic update feature from working, and it also had a bug that presents similarly to our first issue. If you go to the website and download that version, it fixes both the opening bug and the automatic update bug.
