Hi,
I've just recently upgraded from Vista to Windows 8 and while the "Start" interface requires getting used to I've learned to adapt. My main gripe about this OS is that I absolutely hate seeing my zip files show up as a folder extension in the Explorer program as it adds more clutter whenever I'm looking or things. I hated it when it was in Vista and it aggravates me now in Windows 8. Vista was easy to remedy as involved a minor adjustment, unfortunately Windows 8 gets a little more complicated as I've no clue about what to do. Google has brought me here with instructions on removing the feature that dates back to Windows 7, but I get stuck somewhere between in the regedit and "owner" tab as I don't seem to have that feature. So can someone help me clarify what exactly I am supposed to do in that regards. Thanks.
Also, I would like to add that I am not looking for another third party program to extract or compress my zip files, I'm perfectly happy with my old one...unless your program some how solves my problem. Thanks again for your time.
