  1. File explorer file count and size missing


    I just noticed this and I don't know if it's a new "feature" or bug; the File Explorer when I would select a group of files, at the very bottom of the File Explorer the is would list out how many files I selected. Or if I select a file, it would read out the size of such file. Or when I open a folder, it would state the number of files in that folder. Do I have a bug or was this removed for some unknown reason.

    Just in case, here is a link to what I am talking about, outline in red, that I am missing. This image is from Google Images.

  3. Word Count Column in File Explorer

    I work primarily with RTF documents. I came across the option in Windows File Explorer to add a "Word Count" column to the File Explorer display. The "Word Count" does display but it gives no count for any of the documents listed in the File Explorer.
    From top to bottom no word count is displayed for any file created in any of the word processors I use. To date my search on the internet has not found a solution to the lack of word counts.

    File explorer file count and size missing

    I have added the file count column to my folder in File Explorer. However, the actual file count is not displaying.

    • Using File Explorer, I navigated to the folder I wanted to view the file counts, I right clicked on the column labels and chose File Count.
    • This is occurring on any folder when I try to use the File Count column
    • I currently use Windows Defender and Malwarebytes
    • I also tried changing the View to Detail Pane, that did not make any difference.
