    How do I edit the DATA in a column in windows file explorer


    I want to change data contained in the "Title" column in Windows File Exlorer the same way I can edit the data contained in the data column by using rename. Does this exist in column list or individual file level. Please note I am referring to mp3 files

    :)

  2. Editing Column Content in File Explorer Win 10

    The column data cannot be edited directly. You can turn on the Details pane from the View tab of the ribbon toolbar on top of the Explorer window (see the top-left of your own screenshot), or you can right-click each file, open its Properties dialog and
    edit the data you want via the Details tab.

    First of all only data for files can be edited, not folders. Second, each file type supports various tags whose data you can edit. Tags available for one file type (JPG for example) will differ from those available for another type (MP3 for example), although
    there may be a few common tags too. Third, the Account Name data doesn't seem to be user editable in any way.
