    add personal column names in folder

    Hi there,

    I would like to add my own columns / headings within a folder and then be able to populate that column with specific information for files within this folder and would like to know if this is possible in Windows 10. Windows offers many options for column
    names, however those that I require are not in the list, and even if they were, it does not appear that I could add my own information. Please advise if this is possible. Thx.

    why won't column headings in File Explorer (Windows 10) stay the way I set them??

    Hello,

    To resolve the issue with column heading on File Explorer, we suggest to follow the steps below:

    • Click on the View Tab.
    • Click Folder Options.

    • Click Apply to all folders.
    Keep us posted.

    Regards.

    Add column to folder

    How do I set all the column headings to the column headings I want to see for all my music folders in Windows 10

    Hi Allan,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
    I will surely help you to fix this issue.

    To change which columns to appear in Music Folder, you may try these steps:

    a. You may open the music folder and click on View Tab.

    b. Click on Add Columns.

    c. Click More Columns.

    d. Select the required columns and also you can
    move it up and down.

    But when you create a new folder these changes will not appear in that folder. You may have to make these changes manually on the new folder.

    I suggest you to leave a feedback about the same on Windows Feedback app.

    Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with an updated status of the issue so that we can assist you further.
