Hi,
I'm using Windows 7 Professional x64. When I use Windows Explorer to view image files (jpg, png, etc.), I would like to see each image's dimensions listed in the Details Pane (when it's set to view the images as Icons/Thumbnails, rather than Details). However, the only details that show up in the Details Pane are Name, Type, Date Created, Date Modified, and Size. This is the case even though:
* I've checked 'Dimensions' in the 'Choose Details' options
* The folder is already categorized/optimized for 'Pictures'
* Other folders show the other details I want -- i.e., the Details Pane for my 'Videos' folder shows Length, Frame Width, Frame Height, and other details that I've chosen
Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
I recommend downloading and running Reimage. It's a computer repair tool that has been proven to identify and fix many Windows problems with a high level of success.
I've used it in the past to identify and fix everything from blue screens (BSOD's), ActiveX errors, corrupt files and processes, dll/exe/sys errors, recover lost memory, Windows update problems, defragging, malware removal etc.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloadreimage.com/download.php. (This link will automatically start a download of Reimage that you can save to your computer.)
How can I re-associate .mp4 files with video details displaying in the Details Pane? After installing the K-lite codecs pack, my mp4's all began displaying in the details pane as audio files (Album, Artist etc) and no longer displays the important video default details (size, frame height, bitrate etc). I assume it was because of incorrectly associating file types when installing the codecs (even though wmv's, avi's are still correct), so I uninstalled the codecs but the Details categories remain for typical audio files. I've exhausted The Google and I'm stumped... any help? (Win7, 32-bit with VLC as my default player) Thanks!

I think you are asking Windows Explorer to do more than it is intended to do.Try using infranview to view the folder. Get infranview at the link below.http://www.irfanview.com/

How can I change the color of details pane in Windows Explorer? I'm trying to modify Soft7 visual style to suite my needs.. I've found allmost everything else, but I can't find the way to change this. Is it a bitmap in shellstyle.dll, msstyles, or something else?
A fairly simple question:
Has anyone tried to (or found a third party app) that can put the details pane back to the bottom of the File Explorer windows, like it was in 7. It was of great use to me when reading tags and other information. In 8, it just takes needless width space from the windows.
Shell32.dll but modifyng it crashes windows 8 (at least in CP/RP), havent tried in RTM yet.
15 more repliesis there anyway i can display my details panel on the bottom ? like it used to on win 7?
because windows 10 shows it on right hand side, but it's just taking too much of the space on my screen, it's really inconvenient when you open 2 folders and snap to sides and modify files.
Was just thinking the same thing. Here is how my Win7 workstation looks (about perfect to me! Note Classic Explorer is also running).
...and in Win10. The preview thumbnail image in the details pane cannot be resized (larger).
Is there a way to display file folder location in the details pane view?
In the search box I've type *.* and it display all files. There are duplicate files I want to delete so I want to see which folder they're in without checking each file's properties.
Thanks in advance.
As the title says, all of a sudden i have missing file info in the details pane, i have a lot of digital media and usually when i click on it it shows me every from its name to audio type, date modified etc..all of a sudden it no longer shows me what audio, chapters or subtitles etc..from the screenshot below a lot of info that used to be there now isnt....any help would be appreciated
How to Customize the Details Pane in Windows 10
1 more repliesHello! I would like to somehow know how to move the details pane from bottom to the top, like this:
Thank you!
In order to customize which fields are displayed in the details pane for a given file type you can:
1. Run Regedit.
2. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\SystemFileAsso ciations\.mp3 (Or whatever file type you want to edit.)
3. Edit the PreviewDetails string.
My question is:
Is there a way to do something similar for folders? Currently, the only info displayed in the details pane when a folder is selected is Date modified, and Availability. I would like to add other details to this pane (Size, Date created etc...). Is this possible?
How would I add an image to the background of the details pane? The ones highlighted in the screenshot I attached.

I just did a reinstall of XP Pro and am having trouble with video files being "in use" when trying to move/delete them (only a several second lag, but it is annoying me). It has to do with a preview being generated in the details pane in the bottom left corner of Explorer. I eventually figured out how to turn off the preview option on my last install but have forgotten how I did it. Under folder options I have "do not cache thumbnails" unchecked. Is this the setting I need to change? Or is it somewhere else? It seems to me I need an option to not show a preview in the details pane.
Thanks for any suggestions.
I haven't done an XP install, but I have had problems like yours. Here is how I fix them without reinstalling, in case it may help? (The instructions may be different for XP.)
Thumbnails are used as icons when the folder is in Thumbnail view. This is usually not the problem, since they are usually cached after the first time. I turn them off by getting the Properties window for that folder. (I just go to the parent folder and right-click on the folder there, then choose Properties.) Then in one of the tabs, I find the Enable thumbnail view option and uncheck it. But, again, this is probably not the problem.
The preview thumbnail (actually, the whole details pane) can be turned off by unchecking View as Web Page in the View menu in one folder. Or, you can turn it off for all folders by going to View menu > Folder Options > General tab > choose Custom, then click the Settings button and in the View Web Content in Folders section, choose Only for folders where I select "as Web Page" [View menu]
If I want the details pane, but not the preview, I edit the HTML of the window. I don't know if you want to try this, it can be confusing, but here's what I do, just in case:
I right-click on the detail pane (or you can use the View menu), and click Customize this Folder... then choose create or edit HTML document. This allows me to customize that details pane. To remove only the worst case files from the preview, I see if I can find "var w... Read more
Hai Im new here..
Recently I was trying to add comments to movie folders so that i can keep a brief description about it when i click on it. It was easy to add comment then i had a bit trouble to get the comment getting displayed in the details pane...after playing with the registry for a while i got that solved as well.
Now I ended up with a problem where the comment being displayed eds with just some 3 or 4 words with the remaining given in dots (...) and I get a full display of it when i hover the mouse over it, which obviously goes way in 5 seconds or so.
So what i need is to find a way to expand what ever that is shown in the details pane so that it shows the entire content in consecutive lines without being restricted to one line (without having to hover a mouse)
You might get a picture of it if you have a small details pane on the right and make it show your processor details when you open thisPC.
This is what i mean, if no one gets it :P
1 more repliesHello.
I've been trying to re-organize my photo collection. Previously, I had been using Windows Live Photo Gallery to tag my photos, and admittedly it was convenient. Recently, though, the program has gone on the fritz to where thumbnails aren't loading so it's harder to differentiate photos simply by the file name in cases where I have a lot of photos of the same group or folder. While I've tried a lot of troubleshooting to get the thumbnails to load, and would gladly take advice on that issue, in the meantime I'm trying to accomplish the same thing using the details pane in explorer.
When I highlight a photo right now, most file types load the date stamp, tags, rating, author(s) and comments properties in the details pane. However, I'd like to edit the people properties so I can tag individuals in the photos. I have not seen a way to easily do that short of using other software (such as Photo Gallery).
Does anyone know if there's a way to do this through explorer or will it require a separate application?
You are talking about edit Exif data. There are programs out there that allow you to do that.
4 more repliesThe details pane used to show a thumbnail preview of the first page of Adobe Acrobat documents when I selected the file. This was extremely helpful to me due to the nature of how I file these documents, as I didn't have to open the files - I only had to select them.

Is there any way to permanently remove or disable all of the various "views" in the Windows 7 Navigation Pane *except* for Details? If a subdirectory contains audio files I *never* want to see "Album" or "Artist" or any of the rest of that garbage. If the subdirectory contains an image file I *never* want to see a thumbnail of images. If I need more information about a file I'll right click on it and select Properties, thankyewverymuch!
In short, when I click anywhere in the left or right panel in the Navigation Pane I never want to see *ANYTHING* except the file name, type, size, and date modified. If it isn't a file (e.g. Network, etc.) just show me a computer or device name, not some massive image of a router or other waste of my time.

I have this problem with the vista details pane and I have not been able to find any solution. I have Windows Vista 32 bit Home Premium version. The problem is that:
1. My details pane is missing a lot of properties/tags . Only ones that are appearing are file date, file name, dated created.
2. When I go into a MP3 folder, same thing happens as I described in 1. Just the 4 tags appear and I don?t get any other tags that used to be there like artist name, rating, title, etc.
3. I cannot edit any Tag in the details pane. When everthing was working fine, I could go in the MP3 folder , I could edit the title, ratings etc. and Save it. But now I can?t do anything, the save button does not appear and the tags don?t go in edit mode.
Up till now I have tried the following solutions:
1. I have reset all the folder options in Vista by going to Folders/tools/reset defaults. (did not work)
2. After resetting the folders, I have also turned on the details pane option under Organize/Layout and the details under the Views. (did not work)
3. Under View, in the tool bar, I went to Customize This Folder and chose the Music Folder Option, All Items etc. (did not work)
4. Then on the Microsoft site, I found this solution ? Open Documents by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Documents., and click a file to apply properties.

Is this only for mp3 files?
You said "when everything was working fine" what happened? did you download a new program? (itunes,vlc)

I want to make some specific changes to the default Preview Details string for picture files in Windows Explorer. I have found an excellent write-up on how to edit that string using regedit, but the author was only interested in the specific around music. In the attached picture, I show the file properties/attributes that I am interested in placing in the Detail Pane. The current edited string is shown below.
prop:System.Photo.DateTaken;System.Keywords;System.Title;System.Subject;
*System.Photo.PeopleNames;*System.Contact.Location;*System.Contact.StateOrProvince;
*System.Contact.Country;System.Comment;*System.DateCreated;*System.DateModified;
*System.SharedWith
As you can see, some work, others don't. Is there a comprehensive list of these properties and their syntax in the form
(*)System.xxxx.yyy
that one can refer to when modifying the string?
In Windows 8.1, I want to customize the properties displayed in the Details Pane for ALL of my MP3s . (That is, I do not mean removing/modifying the properties on an individual MP3/music file. I mean choosing what gets displayed in the Details Pane for all music files.)
In XP (which I love and miss), I do believe the Details Pane could be customized easily, but I see no way to do that in 8.1. For example, I want to display Artist, Album, Year, Track #, Size, and Duration ONLY. How do I remove Rating, Genre, Title, etc.
Also, can I remove the "breadcrumbs" (...) and have the full line displayed? In XP, everything was displayed. Now you have to hover over something to see it. How is that better?
I miss XP's file manager!

Check that your files haven't suddenly become "Read-only".
Also try running CHKDSK to check the drive.
After I've used one of my external HDDs at TAFE, my PC claims that it is "Read-only" and it takes several CHKDSK commands to fix the problem.
Of course after CHKDSK is finished, it says that there weren't any problems.

I was wondering if you know if there is a way to improve Vista's Video Preview on the Details Pane.
The problem I see is that Vista shows the very 1st second of video, while Windows 7 shows the 4th. That's why many of the video previews on the details pane show a black screen on vista instead of actual video.
If anyone else has the answer, I will be really grateful.
I guess you could edit that through the registry, but believe me, lol, to be honest Idk...

Hi, I just re-installed windows 7 on my desktop pc and have a question about the settings of the details pane in windows explorer (the one that appears and the bottom when you select a file). Previously when I selected video files (.mp4, .avi and .mkv) I would get the details at the bottom, the video frame width and height, size of file etc.. but since I reinstalled I don't get these details when I select video files. I know its only a small problem but I work with video files a lot and have gotten used to seeing the resolution of files without having to open them. Does anyone know how I can get the details pane to show these details again? At the moment it only displays the video size, name and state.
Here is a screen-shot of the details pane for a selected .mkv video file on my laptop, this is what I want it to display on my pc.
Is the folder set as a "Video" type?
Look at the properties of the folder, and there you will see a drop down list for the type.
I googled the problem and NOTHING!!!!! many information NO LONGER is displayed in my details pane in Windows Explorer!!!!!! song length is one of them gone missing (& total length if multiple files are selected) and I use that frequently!!!!! it ONLY shows basic information now such as artist, title, album, and genre!!! but total length is GONE!!! also MANY UNRELATED INFORMATION is now in the details pane for media files!!!!!!! mood of music has been added (never heard of that tag), song rating, and composer now have been added!!!! it even displays ALL THIS SAME INFORMATION for WAV files when it used to be ONLY file size and length for WAV files!!!!!!! WAV is NOT capable of tags so I don't know why Windows Explorer shows this information for WAV files!!!!!!
HOW DO I GET MY DETAILS PANE BACK TO NORMAL???????

For Windows 7, is there a list of the 'Details' available in the Windows Explorer folder view called 'Details' which has an explanation for each of them? Most of them are simple but some leave me scratching my head.
The "Details" which are available are those you see when a list of files is in "Details" view (as opposed to "Icons" or "Tiles" views.In "Details" view, depending on which column categories you have enabled, you are shown such things as filesize, file-date, filetype etc. If you then right-click any column header, you can choose to hide or show more information columns.I can't see how any of that can leave you scratching your head as it's no different to previous versions of Windows in that respect.

Hello, I was wondering about the possibility to increase the images thumbnail size on the details pane in file explorer, and to make the panel maller than allowed by default. Is it possible?
Thank you for your help
There seems to be a minimum size which is pre-defined, you cannot make it smaller. The preview and details pane size is set by the DetailsContainerSizer binary value in the Registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Modules\GlobalSettings\Sizer
I do not know of way to make the thumbnail larger in the details pane. It is larger in the preview pane.

When I try to rename it to a straight Michael Smith, Vista gets all upset and starts tellimg me that it probably won't work anymore if I persist!!
There's gotta be a way to rename these contacts!

When I click in HELP/ABOUT in IE 9 I get the following:-
"IE9 v.9.0.8112.16421
Product ID 03553-112-5462972-85083"
Do I have 64bit version ?
Short answer: No.
If Microsoft kept it the same as IE8, the bit version will be listed on the same line, and to the right of the IE version.
So in your case it would read, Version: 9.0.8112.16421 64-bit Edition.
Since you do not show that extra information I would say you have the 32-bit Edition installed.
You can, if you want to install the 64x edition, go to Internet Explorer - Web Browser for Microsoft Windows Open the Select your version drop down box, there you will see the option to select either the 32 or 64 bit versions, select the 64bit and download that.
Hi all,
Could you guys check whether you can see the details/properties of an MSI on right-clicking? Properties like ProductName, Description, Manafacturer, etc.
The problem is I can see these properties in some other OS'es like XP/Windows 7, but for same MSI I can't see in Vista/Server 2008. I tried upgrading my Windows Installer from 4.0 to 4.5, but still the issue is not resolved. Also tried disabling UAC. That didn't work either. I upgraded Windows Installer from 3.x to V 4.5 in one of my XP machines.. and I can still see the details there. So, this is not a Windows Installer 4.x issue.
I had also checked the MSI in Orca, and I can see the property fields there. Could someone help me regarding this?
Thanks.

1 more repliesHi im about to buy a new genuine vista ultimate pack from someone...
after doing some research ive found out that there are two types of vista ultimate on sale... one is vista ultimate [ultimate] (expensive) and the other is vista ultimate [OEM] (cheap) ...
the problem is.. what are the differences between these two ultimates? and how can i know that the vista im about to buy is [OEM] or [Ultimate].. im suppose that the [ultimate] ver should be much better than the [oem] as the higher the price is the better will be the quality...
so im about to get some guidelines from u experts here regarding this.. please provide me some details so that im not lost or being fooled.. thanx in advance..
oem and retail version are basically the same. The big difference is oem is only for a newly built computer that never had an operating system installed on it. It falls under the system builders eula.
5 more repliesI recently just got rid of a few viruses on my computer, they took away my toolbar at the bottom of my screen, took away my icons, changed my desktop to a web page or something? I got rid that problem, but now the only thing that I can see wrong is my icons have a white background behind the text. Apparently this is a virus? I tried using Windows Live OneCare program, found it to be the most useless thing ever. Then I downloaded AVG Anti-Virus free, which seemed to fix everything. I'm not exactly sure how to use HijackThis and I don't want to delete anything important. Anyway, here is my log. I would appreciate anyones help!

10 more repliesHey all, new to the board and I've got a little (annoying) issue with windows explorer.
My mp3's no longer display the Artist, Album, Duration fields when windows explorer is set to list in "detail" mode. now the proper columns are selected however they are all blank.
Checking the "properties" of the mp3 files don't have any info in the summary section however entering anything in there.... doesn't change things. The columns are still left blank.
Winamp, windows media and every other media player I use displays all the track information correctly including album title and artist.
I have a whole bunch o' mp3's and previously they would all show this detailed information when being viewed in windows explorer. I've copied some to a memory stick and taken them to another computer, the details were displayed correctly as they should. So i'm thinking I may have set a securiity meassure or something but I can't figure out what I did.
The issue has been happening for the last year or so but now that I'm trying to organize my library i'm missing this feature.
Anyone have any ideas how to fix it?
XP SP2 is my OS.
Hi there...
Have you at any time had trouble accessing avi files in Explorer and had to run the following command:
regsvr32 u/shmedia.dll
???
If yes, that may be the cause of the problem, you can reverse it by clicking Start -> Run -> type:
regsvr32 shmedia.dll
Click OK
However, this is likely to cause you Explorer crashes with .avi files again.
If the above doesn't apply, it may be worthwhile trying the command then rebooting to see if it helps :)

Clicked Configure sensors, Changed needed values to YES in OSD(RTSS) by checking in 'Show values in OSD' with layout in different lines.

I have a personal weather station site for the ranch on Wunderground - I have a signature on outgoing emails that give a clickable URL address for the site
http://www.wunderground.com/weathers...p?ID=IBCSLAAG2
Is there a way to make the site URL more concise - like AGUJAWEATHER - instead of that long baffling string?
Thanks
rob
As long as your email is in html instead of plain text, just type this in-
<a href="http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=IBCSLAAG2">AGUJAWEATHER</a>
all in one line, I'll break it into chunks so it doesn't display-
<a href="http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=IBCSLAAG2">
then type what you want to appear followed by a /a enclosed in angle brackets
hope this displays like I want it to
edit- ok, guess html isn't enabled in quick replies. Type the top line into your signature where you want the AGUJAWEATHER link to appear

At my new job one of my tasks is to keep up to date the company's PC/laptop list up to date such info. It would be easier if I could write a script that would go out say once a week to each PC and get the info them update a spreadsheet.

I use XP Pro. The screen resolution is set to 1152/864, extra large fonts.(if that makes a difference). I always view windows explorer in max. size.
I deal with a lot of images, creating slide shows etc.. Frequently I want an exact number of images in a certain folder. The number displayed in the status bar does not match the counted number of images. Example: I counted (three times) 421 images, the status bar reported 451 "objects" along with the size in bytes for these "objects". Folders that have a smaller number of files, images or other files, report the correct numbers of the "objects" as counted.
Can anyone suggest the reason for this discrepancy?
There may be hidden files in the folder. Open windows explorer > Tools > Folder Options > View >check the box that says "Show Hidden Files and Folders", scroll down a little further and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)". Windows explorer should now list all 451 objects in that folder.

When completing details for a family tree site, a four stage completion, I am in trouble.

I have completed the same thing on my friend's computer so there is nothing wrong with the site. I have allowed popups. Using Win ME and IE 6. Anyone help??
using a different browser?Sometimes, for no apparent reason, a browser will simply balk at a web page. Often there's no logical explanation, but using a different browser can sometimes do the trick.

2 more repliesI have occasionally purchased used pcs in the past and never really thought to look past the "genuine" icon or whatever the validation tool says. I'll bet this is what most rely on. I had reason to clean install recently and it involved 150+ updates. Are you really saying there is no way in all those updates for it to perform the same inspections that the MGA utility does?
If the MGA report is the definitive test, can someone share the checklist you use to interpret that?
Teach a man to fish already.
Hi Tns.
All that the Mgadiag tool does is collate information.
Mainly from the software service protection folder.
The service.exe generated by this file is called everytime you login(1) or update(2) and is interactve with both.
This .exe performs the Genuine test(1) as such, the results of this check are then passed across to the WindowsUpdate log(2) and the System details log(1) .
Thats just a short brief synopsis, but carries the basic operations performed.
The checklist in its own right is massive, because of the the different permutations, we know a fair bit about it, but by no means everything.

I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forum.

10 more repliesSo I came across an old desktop pc in a garagesale today. Just about 50$ with 24" screen and relatively new wireless keyboard and mouse from logitech. A bargain I thought. Got it home, recovered it and want to know what makes it tick. Read a little online here about specs, but it doesn't say if it's a 64bit or 32bit system. While it says 1GB max memory(and 1gig it has)it has 4 slots and should be capable of reading at least 2GB memory with a 32bit system(which I suspect it is).Can someone give me some hard answers and maybe I could save this oldtimer and give it new life as a media presenter for my flat screen :-)
Solved!

Hi, It is around 12-13 years old now. Not much information you can find. The following specs should be good enough: http://www.cnet.com/au/products/hp-compaq-presario-sr1000/specs/ Yes, it only a 32bit machine (very hard to find 64 bit machine 12 years ago). The following statment confirm this: Downside: Since the SR1000 line is targeted at mainstream users, you won't see configuration options for a second hard drive or the latest-and-greatest graphics card. Also, while some of AMD's faster Athlon 64 processors have trickled down into the mainstream, HP offers only the 32-bit Athlon XP chips on SR1000Z models. Your choices for bundling a monitor are similarly limited, with neither LCDs nor CRTs available in screen sizes larger than 17 inches. I would not spend more money to upgrade this machine specially for flat screen presentation. Keep the keyboard and monitor then chuck it to a bin. Regards.

This problem is happening in Chrome. At my school, you have to log in to use the internet. When I connect using the wireless my log in credentials are saved and all I have to do is click log in. However, when using the wired connection (much faster) it does not remember my log in details. I believe it used to but one time a friend logged in with theirs for some reason and now it doesn't remember them. Typing this in every time I want to get on the internet is pretty annoying and I would like to have it remember my log in details.
Picture if you want: http://i.imgur.com/QQjJa.png
I tried deleting the saved password in Chrome for the URL I get when logging in to wired but it didn't remember it after I logged in again.
Could someone please let me know how I can get Chrome to remember the log in details?
