Configure appearance of Explorer Window
On my Windows 2000 machine, every Windows Explorer window (directory
listing) by default contains a "status bar" at the bottom of the window. This "status" bar displays: 1) if no items are selected, the number of items displayed (the number of items/objects shown in the window) and the total size of the files in the window (bytes to be transferred if the entire contents are copied or moved) 2) if one or more items are selected, the number of items selected and the total size of the selected files. (It doesn't extend to the size of the contents of selected folders, unfortunately.) This status bar at the bottom of Explorer windows is missing on my XP machine(s) by default, even though I have selected / enabled the "classic" Windows user interface for the machine. How do I enable this status bar? Is it available in XP? I find it very useful in Win2K and it is one of the reasons I stick with Win2K for my "production" machine. TIA Fred Holmes |
