Annoyance in Vista Ultimate - Details Shows File Size in Kb ONLY!!!

As the subject/title line suggests, my Vista explorer's "Details" view only shows file size in kb!!!! How very, very annoying!!!!

Has anyone else had this problem? Is there any tweak or fix out there that will bring it back to normal? I have reinstalled some four time over the last month since first getting Vista (for driver problems, not this issue) but this problem has persisted through each install.

I want the old format of <1mb in kb and >1mb in mb.

HELP ME OUT PLEASE!!!

Thanks in advance for your time :)

Hi Mumbaindude, and welcome to Vista Forums.

Sorry, but there is no way around this one in Windows Explorer. :(

About the only option is to use some 3rd party file viewing program like explorer that does support that feature.

Thanks for the answer... I'm not a regular here so I never saw the response way back then... :huh:

I really wish that there was a way to fix it! So.......... I just wanna be clear (sorry for being annoying in my own way lol... :p) but, let me get this straight. EVERYONE sees file size in KB now instead of MB if using Windows Vista Ultimate???

Thanks for the help!

Bye for now...
