| | File Description Missing in Large Folder View Today the file descriptions went missing from folder view in explorer. I like the large/medium folder views, but without the name of the folder there makes it hard to navigate to the files I want. I cannot find any options to turn the folder names back on in this view. Any help would be appreciated. Here are some pictures of what I'm talking about.
