    Restore shift+double click to resize all columns in Details view?


    To resize all columns to fit in Details view in Explorer the fastest way used to be putting the cursor on one division then holding Shift and double clicking.

    But some Windows version back, Microsoft took that away. *Mad

    Any way to get it back in 10 and other versions without it?

    :)

    Windows Script Host access is disabled

    The script file name is not visible. Pls expand the Command line column by double-clicking the resize pane near the column header, and post a fresh screenshot.
