Hi all,

If I hover over a file with my cursor, I can't see what size it is or any
other info. The only thing I can do is right click and choose properties.
Am I missing something here?

Thanks for your help,
Alice

Go to Control Panel, Folder Options, View. Scroll down and check -
Show pop-up descriptions for folder and desktop items.

Hello,

one idea: In Tools -> Folder Options... -> View, is "Show pop-up description for folder and desktop items" checked?

Greetings,
