Thank you for your suggestion, but it doesn't work, at least for me. In fact,
a similar option "make (partition) active" found in diskmgmt.msc is not
available (dim grey) for the pendrive.

First please excuse me for my English, not my language, but I cann't get any
piece of advice from my native group although I posted there repeatedly.

My local disks as well as my CD/DVD drives, folders and files, show an
infotip when the mouse hovers thereon.
However, my USB pendrives and my MMC/SD memory cards do not shown any
infotip by this method.
I tried a NTFS format instead of FAT/32 but this didn't help.
What is the reason? How can I manage so that ALL of my local and removable
drives show an infotip reporting total size and free space -as seen in
Properties-, assuming that this is possible? If not, a simple confirmation
will also be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your reply.
