    File Explorer Details Display Columns

    Hi : is not totally clear, what "File explorer" option you

    want to set up. Most users have the "Details View"

    Steps how to Do that, are shown here and

    were "copy+Paste" from a

    MSoft article

    press Windows [Key + E] To open File Explorer. click the [View] Tab at

    the top of the window. In the Layout section. Select Extra large icons

    Large icons, Medium Icons, Small icons, List,

    Details, Tiles or content

    To change to the view you want to see. We recommend use

    the "Details option" For users, not sure what to choose..

    Changing to this option. May show modified date on files

    Hi.

    If Date Modified doesn't show on the options when you choose Sort by, we suggest that you perform this steps:

    • In File Explorer, select the folder you want to have changes with.
    • Right-click and select Sort by.
    • Select More, then check if the Date modified option has a check mark.
    • Click OK, then try to perform again the steps provided by Acelyn Alc.
