I'm currently making a Media Player in WPF and C# (Visual Studio 2012), I've implemented all basics functions like opening video/music/image, it can be played or paused, the user can manage playlists, ...

Now when I want to use my application as the default player, I need to open the selected file at startup to launch the media. How to retrieve the file opened when I launch my application?

The file to open will be given to your program via command line arguments. Have a look for example here, it's a comprehensive discussion about retrieving/parsing the command line arguments for a c# program: Best way to parse command line arguments in C#? Or here: WPF Command Line Arguments, a smart way?
