Loving Pharo so far. However, I'm having some issues getting it set
up nicely in Windows, especially Windows 7.

I used the Windows one-click installer (and have also tried the zip
file). Either way, Windows does not appear to recognize that Pharo
is installed, so that when I try to set up a file association,
pharo.exe doesn't get associated.

(At one point, I did something that got it partly associated, but
even then if i would click a .image file, I got a UTF8 error and the
original image wound up opening.)

There was a similar problem few weeks ago. Can you please take a look and see if it is the same problem:

That time, I opened the issue:

http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=2374

It does work to drag a saved image onto pharo.exe. That's not quite
as convenient as it might be but is livable certainly.

So I'm looking for a pointer to some advice on setting Pharo up on
Windows XP and Windows 7.

Check the link I gave you. I think it may be of help.

Cheers
