    It's easy to mess up the registry - so to be safe you can create a restore point first.
    Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore
    and create a restore point.

    Then to examine the registry:
    Click 'Start' > 'Run'
    Type "regedit" (without the "")and browse through the entries exactly as shown below.

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.avi\shellex\PropertyHandler
    The value shown inside PropertyHandler should be as shown earlier.

    In my case, if the number is different, the properties are empty.

    If you want quick info about your video/audio file, use a better player.VLC provides a basic info; KMPlayer is excellent(and plays about anything, lots of features). Here's what KMP provides with a right click of the mouse:
