The problem
When using xp_publish.php to download and merge the needed reg file XP complains about the text file not in binary. Examining the downloaded regfile I noticed some garbage characters at the beginning of that file:
QuoteWindows Registry Editor Version 5.00
Those first three characters made Xp very unhapy.

The search
At first I thought it had to do something with headers so I took a journey through various headers and content-types. No result. At last I added a
Quoteecho "bla";
to xp_publish and moved the line downwards and after every move I refreshed xp_publish.php in my browser to see if the
Quotebla
had changed to
Quotebla
After a change I repeated the same process with the file that was included when the above change happened. This pinned the error down to:

The cause
lang/dutch.php  >:(

The fix
Change the first line in lang/dutch.php from
Quote<?php
to
Quote<?php

xp_publish.php looks better now and the regfile works with XP. XP is very happy now ;D

What's your coppermine version?
Coppermine Photo Gallery 1.4.8 (stable)

Sorry I didn't mention that. Maybe it was fixed in a newer build but I didn't find anything about a fix on this forum. There are 2 threads that mention this problem but is was not fixed: XP Plublishing reg file (help needed) and XP_publish.php - The specified file is not a registry script
