Windows 10: Windows 11 cannot edit files from details pane

I always used to edit and add tags for JPEGs from the details pane in File Explorer. I'm not sure if this was removed in the latest update or not, but I'm no longer able to edit JPEG details from the details pane on the side. The pane still displays all of the details that are set, but I'm not longer able to edit from there. Was this removed in the latest update for Windows 11? If so, why?

Customize Preview Details in Details Pane of File Explorer in Windows


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!
