    RUN> regedit

    Code:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
    Right click ShowInfoTip and select modifiy.

    Set the value to "0" and click OK.

    Log off and then back on for change to take effect.

    This turns it off for the whole OS. So when you hover over a file or folder it will not have the tooltip either.
