Pop Info Window and Mouse Cursor

[Guest]

I don't know what to call those little info windows that pop up when a
cursor is dragged across a file name. However, in multimedia files
called MU3 files, associated with music, usually the pop up window
contains all the files associated with the MU3...the text part of the
MU3 music file listing. This works OK on one PC I have but not on
another. I must have a switch to set that I have overlooked. Any
pointer on this? I can't tell if this is an Media Player issue or not,
since these are MP related files. But nothing seems like it is related
in WMP.

An unrelated issue has to do with file associations. Again, on one
computer but not the other I can open graphic files directly from
within a zip window...the contents of a zip file...but on another it
refuses this association no matter how often I try to set it. Again,
there must be a switch I am not setting. Again, any help would be
appreciated.

Hi Henry,

For the 1st part, MU3 or M3U files?

m3u...I don't think there is an mu3...mp3 maybe. Mistype. Shouldn't
make any difference, since the mp3 ID3 data shows up in the pop up
windows and only the m3u text info doesn't come up.
