is there a fix for these... strange windows things?

hi...

i'd like to change the tooltips for video files
cause for webm it doesn't show the length
for mp4 and vob it doesn't show the date
and windows still doesn't seem to know
what a flash video is...

i looked all over the registry and i couldn't seem to find it...
does anyone know where it is?

does anyone know how to keep windows
from changing the dates on the folders?
it seems all i need to do is open a zip file
or move a folder into another
and windows will change the date...

i gave up on windows compressed folders a long time ago
cause windows would change the date on every file...
but peazip does it right so there must be a way...

any ideas?

and does anyone know how keep internet explorer
from loading the page wanting me to set it up
as the default browser every time i use it?

First google search for internet explorer change default home page.
Change your home page in Internet Explorer - Windows Help
for changing the data stamp no clue. I believe you are talking about the modified data stamp it gives it's self when you make a change to it.

Click to expand...

thank you...
i finally clicked the no thanks button
when the ie page popped up and it went away...
went to the advanced tab and saw the box was unchecked...
i only use it for opening mht files i saved
it's really fast and light
when you don't use it for anything else...

i might have to live with windows 8 changing the
modifed accessed dates every time i do something...
the files themselves are more important...

windows 8 is so touchy on this...

is there a way to keep internet explorer
from using the internet
and only use firefox?
