Solved The Thumbnail at the Bottom of the Folder Window Missing?
Dear Brains,
On the other Windows PCs I've used, there has always been a small thumbnail at the bottom of the window showing details of the item/photo selected, but with Window 8, this is missing.
Some details are there, but they are not easy to take in at a glance and I really miss the thumbnail preview. Also, and this is really annoying - the details don't state the size of videos. I'm not going to rundown Windows yet again, as I'm hoping I'm missing something simple.
Is there a way to get this feature back? I've worked hard to make 8 useable, but this little, yet much missed, detail eludes me. Although I'm sure more annoyances will come along
.
Thanks for any help

Thanks for the welcome Brink (and replying Antspants).
In a way yes, but it used to be a long the bottom and less intrusive, but with all the info I wanted. I don't like the Details Pane along side like that. Very intrusive to be left activated permanently like I want.
Is it possible to have it like in W7, as in the picture below (If I get it attached properly!).
Many Thanks.

Agreed. It's better to toggle the default details pane on/off as needed instead.

You seem to know what you're talking about Mr Brink, so that's good enough for me
