  1. Explorer loading delay as file details blank out and reappear


    When opening certain folders in Explorer mostly containing audio fiiles and/or formatted as MUSIC type, it becomes unresponsive and hangs, while visually all columns aside from the icon at the very left go blank, one by one down the list. Once this reaches the bottom of the folder, it "blinks" and visually loads everything correctly. While this is happening I am unable to interact with the window in any way, i.e. cannot close via any method, cannot go back, etc.I noticed this behavior soon after upgrading to Windows 11. It persists through all updates. Since first noticing the issue, i have

    File Explorer displays MP3 details, NOT File Details. How to switch ?

    Explorer loading delay as file details blank out and reappear [​IMG]


    Here is a mp3 file with just Title (Concerto Gregoriano) and Composer in its metadata.
    1. In file explorer, I created a new file on my desktop and copied the mp3 file to it.
    As you can see, it is listed with date, size. The folder is a general format type, not music.
    Please try that.

    2. To the right, mp3tag, a free utility, shows the metadata in the file.
    You might find it useful to get mp3tag.
    3. Rt click, Properties, Details, shows the Title as part of the metadata. (Composer is off the screen).

    I suggest you make sure your mp3's do indeed contain metadata.

    (Sorry the Window titles are faint- they are background, but should be clearer)
