Windows 10: Details missing at bottom of Explorer window

Windows 10, just ran an update yesterday but I'm not 100% sure that that's when I noticed the change. As you can see in the picture above, the only info that is displayed at the bottom left is the file size, whereas before it's always shown me the file type (.mp4, .mkv, .pdf, etc.) as well as the length for video files. Does anyone know how to get this back?

Someone told me to uninstall the update from Control Panel, I tried doing that but every time I restart, Windows just re-updates, even though I have auto-update set to off and even set it to Pause all updates for a week.
