^That's how the duration looks for all of my audio files in Windows Explorer. Instead of 3:39 (which is the duration of the file in the image), it shows it being 0:03. It looks fine in all media players, such as iTunes and Windows Media Player.

Any reason why it's like this, and is there a way to fix it?
Go to Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Customize > Time, then set it to h:mm:ss tt or HH:mm:ss then see if that helps - you may have to log out and back in.

I would also update and run through your anti-malware scans - just to be sure.
