  1. Wav files not showing metadata in windows explorer


    So i have ID3 tagged the wav file with mp3tag but windows doesn't want to show "title" & "album" names as it does for the mp3 file with the same tag data on it. is it possible to get it working for .wav files too since it also doesn't want to show the album artwork too?

    Can't see music metadata in Windows Explorer

    I can't see the music metadata on Windows Explorer. I was trying to solve the problem using intructions from here. It doesn't work.

    After installing Windows and drivers I have instlled K-Lite Mega Codec Pack and VLC. Normally, after installing those programs and rebooting of the system metadata was appearing in Explorer. I do not know what went wrong...

    OS: Windows 10 Pro N 64 - may it be caused by the "N" version? I bought european version without WMP. WMP can be necessary to viev metadata?

    File Explorer fails to show metadata?


    I have recently updated my desktop from Windows 7 to Windows 10. For some reason, File explorer seems unable to show metadata. For example, here is what File Explorer shows for one example powerpoint file:

    Wav files not showing metadata in windows explorer [​IMG]


    I created this file on this same desktop before the upgrade, and it has a bunch of metadata including category, subject, author, etc. Since it's in a google drive folder, I can compare this with what I see on my Win10 laptop:


    Wav files not showing metadata in windows explorer [​IMG]


    As you can see, the file itself has a full complement of metadata, it's just not showing up properly in File Explorer on my desktop.

    I'd like to figure out what setting is incorrect on my desktop that's causing this, if possible. I should add that all of this information showed up correctly in the Windows 7 details pane on the desktop before I upgraded, so I presume it's a setting that somehow got changed during the upgrade.

    I've spent about two hours googling to find anyone with a similar problem, to no avail. Anyone have any ideas as to what's causing this?

    Metadata not showing and cannot be edited in Explorer

    I have exactly the same problem. I can add/update metadata in file explorer in Word 2016 files, but not Excel 2016 files. Excel 97-2003 files I can add/update metadata in file explorer. In Excel 2016 itself, I can add/update metadata, but it doesn't show
    in file explorer.
