| | Changing what appears under Type in Windows Explorer When in Windows Explorer I see Microsoft Office Word Document when the file is a .docx. Is there a way I can change what appears in the Type column for any type of file? As an example, I want to see Word 2007 in the file type column not Microsoft Office Word Document when viewing a .docx file. -- Cheers, John |
