Speed-up Access to AVI Media Files

Speed-up Access to AVI Media Files (Windows XP)Windows XP can run slowly when attempting to access a folder that contains a large number of AVI (Audio Video Interleave) media files. Doing this speeds the process up by stopping Windows from extracting file information from AVIs…Open you registry and find the key below.[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{87D62D94-71B3-4b9a-9489-5FE6850DC73E}]To disable file information extraction rename the key and place a minus sign infront of the current name (i.e. “-{87D62D94-71B3-4b9a-9489-5FE6850DC73E}”).Restart Windows for the change to take effect and you’re done.
