folder task of local disk c: changed to "video" how to res..

over the weekend the folder task of local disk c: (the root folder) changed
to "video" from "system" this causes incredible slowdown when accessing any
sub folder containing many files.

how do u reset the folder task of the main root folder back to "system"?

given that:

a. the folder is classed as a windows created folder so there is no
"customise" option for it.

b. resetting folders to default changes all other system folders back to
their default tasks but NOT the root folder.

help would be appreciated.

Steve
