Windows 10: OneDrive and Explorer's Preview/Details pane

Dear Microsoft and users,


I noticed that, when you enable the Preview or Details pane while using OneDrive, Windows Explorer will "stop responding". There's probably a problem with fetching certain information form OneDrive files even when they are set to "always available on device".


For other users, this can be worked around by disabling the panes. However, this is not really a fix.


Is this a common problem and can it be resolved in an upcoming update? Running Windows 10 and OneDrive latest updates 06/02/2020

Greetings and thanks in advance,


Kevin

I could use some help adding the description field for .jpg images to the details preview. I have followed your instructions step by step several times, but it doesn't work.
Does it matter that whether the file extension is .jpg .JPG or .jpeg ?

Any help is appreciated!
