    I know the difference between Gibibytes and Gigabytes means almost nothing, but I would like it if I could show the sizes as GiB instead of GB in the file explorer. If this is possible, please let me know. If not, that's fine! Thanks!-Noah

    How to display file sizes in MB/GB/TB etc instead of only KB in Windows Explorer?

    In a file listing in Windows Explorer, I see the file sizes in KB.

    How do I have those file sizes simplified and shown in more convenient units like MB, GB etc?

    Or, KiB, MiB, GiB

    Is it possible to to change how file sizes are displayed?

    Windows uses the Binary prefix for storage capacity and file sizes, but does not display it properly, (it displays GB/MB/KB instead of GiB/MiB/KiB ). Is it possible to switch Windows to display in decimal prefix, or at least display Binary prefix properly.
