You can click on this button to enable compression for the file or folder, which will make it take up less space on your hard drive. A Read-only file can be opened to see its contents, but it cannot be modified (any changes that you make to it cannot be saved), A Hidden file will not appear when you browse the contents of the folder where it is stored using Explorer, unless you set up Explorer to display Hidden files (in which case they will be displayed in a lighter color than regular files). You will also see check boxes at the bottom of the window where you can make a file Read-only or Hidden. The General tab of the Properties dialog box will provide you with information such as the full path to the file or folder, its size, what application is configured to open it, and the date it was created, last modified, and accessed. You can also Alt-click on a file or folder to access its properties. This reply was modified 2 years, 9 months ago by Al Taylor.To access the properties of a file or folder, right-click on it and select Properties. (FWIW, it’s accompanied by 13 pages of comments that go all the way into 2020.) The program is on the Windows 7 Forum and can be found here: While SFF was designed for Windows 7, I have successfully used it without issue on all subsequent versions of Windows, including the present Win 10-2004. The reason is that, for all of my installs, one of the first programs I put on is a small utility called “ShellFolderFix” (SFF) whose purpose is (it says in it’s post) “to Manage folder position/size.” Since each of my folders, when opened, ARE exactly the size and location where I last put them, then my suspicion is that SFF is also making my View selection persistent for each folder. This is not quite the same having a default where “every” Window opens with the identical View selection, but is functionally the same as long as one is OK with first setting it (and then it can be forgotten).īut I don’t know if Windows itself is doing this “always the same View” function for me or not. When re-opened, various windows my File Explorer always show the last “View” selection that I made for them however, that particular selection had to initially be made when the Window was first opened, but then remains each time re-opened. Can anyone tell me how to set “Details” as the default View in File Explorer so that whenever I open a folder to the file level, it shows me the Details immediately?
