Jo,
There are a few ways you could fix this. You could do it from within Window-Eyes to tell it not to read tooltips or you could do it from within Windows to tell Windows itself not to show them in the first place. To do it from within Windows, try this.
Open a Windows Explorer window, such as My Computer.
Press alt-t for the Tools menu.
Press O for options.
You should now be in a multi-page dialog in the "general tab."
Press control-tab, which changes your view from the "general" page to the "view" page.
Press the tab key a few times until you're in a list of items.
Arrow down until you get to "show pop-up descriptions for folder and desktop items" and press the spacebar to uncheck or disable this item.
Go to the "ok" button and press enter.

Hello,
I am using latest version of WE, and Windows 7 64-bit on a laptop. Over the
past few days, I've been reading the manual and searching the index, because
when I press for example, Dropbox on my desktop, I get the location of the
program, the type, when modified, etc.  Where do I go in the WE control
panel, to shut all this chatting up!??   Thanks, this is not a joke!
