He obviously does't want his problem fixed.
This is what he said
"The pop-up info is there for the folders, word.docs, etc but not for image files, tiffs, jpegs, and the like."
So show pop up description setting is OBVIOUSLY set. And File size is just irrelevent.
So as you are wrong as usual (remember you posted to this thread just after I tried gently to point out to you you were wrong about more memory preventing crashes) perhaps you should just bow out.
