Guest squarepegger Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 From the Windows Explorer menu bar, I select Tools/Folder Options.../View Tab/Advanced settings: and see that the check box labeled "Show pop-up description for folder and desktop items" is CHECKED. It always has been since I installed Windows 2000. Nonetheless, I do not get pop-ups when I hover my cursor over any type of file in Windows Explorer or on my Desktop(CPU usage ~5%, hover time can be minutes). I have the desktop toolbar on my taskbar. If I progress to a file via the desktop toolbar and hover my cursor over that file, I DO get a pop-up description. I'm running Windows 2000 5.00.2195 totally up-to-date with automatic updates enabled. Why don't I get pop-up descriptions in Windows Explorer or on my Desktop? Thanks.
