remove the file details box that pops up when you hover over file
When you click "Open" and the list of files appears, how do you turn off the
little box that pops up and tells you the file details? It pops up very quickly and makes it hard to see what you're looking for. Thanks for the help. |

This is a Windows setting, found in Tools | Folder Options in Windows
Explorer. The speed with which it appears may depend on processor speed and busyness; it seems to take quite a while for me to get the ScreenTip. -- Suzanne S.

Suzanne, when I change the setting that you specified, it only affects
folders, not files, and the annoying yellow boxes still keep popping up when I hover over a file. This thing is driving me nuts.... "Suzanne S.

No, I did not. I had only cleared the box for "display file size..." Thank
you so much! What a relief. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Did you clear the check box for "Show pop-up description for folder and desktop items"? -- Suzanne S.
