    When placing the cursor over a file it would show the summary of the file as entered in the properties. Now it shows type, modifed date and size. Is there a setting so it will show the summary title again. It is very useful when searching for a file of specific content to use as a template.

    What kind of files and are you using NTFS? Office documents (Word, for example) should automatically display the title and author.

    However, other files such as text files will not display the extra summary information on FAT partitions because that data can only be stored in separate NTFS streams
