Show detail of file in explorer

Good morning,

In the explorer can have details on a file (right click property and detail).
Ex version product

On Xp no problem I visualize well the product version whatever the extension of my file, but on Vista it does not appear
If I rennome the file extension of .aaa to .exe I see detail of file

Someone would solve my problem but I need to rename the extension of my file

Thank you for all your future tracks

Ps You can make the experience by changing the extension of a file .Exe to .aaa

You have this "problem" because ".aaa" is not a recognized file extension. For performance reasons, Windows does not look beyond the file extension to determine the type of the file, which is why when you rename ".exe" to ".aaa", you loose the display of its properties. And likewise renaming anything to ".exe" to try and find file properties is just looking for trouble.
