This is a correction to my previous message. In Windows ME, change the default key
of the following path to your desired name:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}.
Then quit regedit and refresh the desktop (F5). This one works!
If you want to rewrite the tooltip, use the path in the article at this site and
change the corresponding key.
