Now you will be on the Destination Folder page.

Uncheck the box for Automatically update QuickTime and other Apple software. This will only install additional unwanted software.

You can also uncheck the box Install Desktop shortcuts, since those are pretty useless.

Click on the Install button. The installation will now begin.Click on the Configure File MIME Types button that is shown on the last page of the installation wizard. This button is only visible on Windows XP. So don t worry if you do not see the button.

File types:

At the bottom, uncheck the box in front of Notify me if other applications modify these associations.

Uncheck everything except this one which unfortunately can t be unchecked :

Video - QuickTime Movie

Start - Run - type regedit and press enter.

Navigate to the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SOFTWARE Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Run
