jaclaz Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Maybe the issue is within the .mp3 extension registration in the Registry or in the Explorer view, see:http://blog.chron.com/helpline/2012/03/viewing-additional-file-information/ It could be also an issue with file association, so you may want to restore the default settings for the specific filetype:http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a folder named ".mp3" but it's directly in the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT folder (see the attachement)Anyway from that article seems everything is needed to aneable more infos in the hoover behaviour For the second link instead, the only action the reg file had on my system is to associate back the mp3 files to WMP and not to WinAmp anymore. The columns Bitrate and Lenght in Explorer are still empty for any kind of mp3s... Tks anyway for your time, really appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) Have you checked this :Once you have the folder view set, right click anywhere on the top column list and you will be presented with all of the options for new columns that can be added to the view of this folder. If this is your dedicated music folder, one of these options will be bitrate. If it is not then you can click on More and find the bit rate option there. AFAIK you should have as in the given link the subkeys related to the Perceived Type, see also:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee872121(v=vs.85).aspx jaclaz Edited May 20, 2015 by jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andywarrior Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) Hello jaclaz, tks for your reply Yes, the Bitrate column is set to be shown in explorer since years, it's just completely blank (no infos) In your first link you gave to me I found the regedit's folder previously not founded: instead to looking for it manually I just used the F3 function Modified the InfoTip regkey as suggested, rebooted and no fix (I attach the image of the mp3 folder, maybe you can see something wrong nor missing), if it should be not readable enough as attachment, here below the original image About the last link you kindly provide to me, I'm not so confidential with the regedit and its command lines to understand what I have to do sorry Anyway, my suspect is there is something wrong in Explorer regkeys, about the mp3 ones I think everything is ok Tks again!
