In Windows 7 I could not prevent QuickTime from reassigning itself to my video files. I tried changing QuickTime preferences in the “Edit>Preferences>QuickTime Preferences>About QuickTime” area, but there was no disable selection. I disassociated all the file types in Windows 7 “Start>Settings>Default Programs” and still, like an annoying but benevolent virus, QuickTime kept changing my preferences. How can annoying the user be a good marketing practice? The only solution I’ve found is uninstalling QuickTime.
Is there a solution to this bug?
