Windows 10: How To Add Column To All Subfolders in Explorer

I have a folder for all my mp3's, flac files. Tons of subfolders. Each one defaults to basic columns, Artist, Album, Title, etc. But I always want to see the type and the bit rate. How do I set this in Explorer for a folder and it's current and future subfolders?
Thanks,


:)

 

Editing Column Content in File Explorer Win 10

I would like to know how to edit the contents of a column in File Explorer in Windows 10. I know how to add or remove column headers themselves, but I can not seem to edit their content. As an example, after adding a column pre-named "Account Name", File
Explorer now shows the following headers: Name, Date Modified, Type, Size and Account Name. I would like to add information in the Account Name column for each subfolder in the current folder (i.e., the subfolder named "test" should have something in the account
name column, the subfolder named "test 2" should have something different in its' account name section). I am unable to access the content of Account Name column at all. Right clicking only allows me to edit the content of the Name column. The area circled
in blue is what I would like to edit.

 

IE11 Favorites Date Modified Changes

If you browse to your favorites folder using Windows Explorer and right click on the column headers in details view, you can add the column "Date Created", and then sort on that column. Unfortunately if you have multiple subfolders like I do, you'll have
to do this within each subfolder. But at least you only have to do this once for each folder and it should remember this setting each time after that.

 

Hello Chamlin, *Smile

You could use the "Apply to Folders" option to apply the folder view to all folders that use the same folder template.

Right click on the heading of any column to see a drop down list of dozens of fields, including type and bitrate.

 

Brink, thanks for that. I did that on the main folder, and it applied the change to all of the main folder's subfolders. But not to the subfolders of those subfolders. For example, this tree:
Main folder: MP3's
Subfolder: The Who
Sub-Subfolder: Tommy

I applied the changes to the main MP3's folder per that customization process, and it succeeded in applying the changes to the subfolder view for The Who. BUT, where I really need it is for all the sub-sub-folders, the actual albums, like Tommy, Who's Next, etc.

It would take for freaking ever to do each artist's folder. Must be a way, yes?

 

Do the subfolders use the same folder template?

Um...don't know about the templates. That must be the issue. I essentially just opened explorer, added a subfolder to my documents, named it MP3's, so that must be the issue. How do I fix this mess?

 

Brink, thanks. I right clicked on the main MP3 folder, went to properties, customize, selected "music", then, re-customized that folder to reflect the columns I wanted, clicked "apply to folders" and voila! Thank you!!!

 

You're most welcome. I'm glad you got it sorted. *Party
