Windows – How to move the “details pane” to the bottom of “File Explorer” in Windows 10

windows 10windows-explorer

In windows 7/8 the details pane showed up in the bottom of "File Explorer". In windows 10 it shows to the right and you can't have "Preview Pane" and "Details Pane" simultaneously enabled since they both use the right portion of "File Explorer".

How can I move the "Details Pane" to the bottom of "File Explorer" like it was in Windows 8 on Windows 10 without using Third Party Tools.

Details on Right

Details on Bottom

Best Answer

According to an Insider on this thread it is not possible anymore without 3rd party software, like BrainStorm.exe suggested.

You can download "OldNewExplorer" and when installing check "Show details pane on the bottom". Due to an issue you may have to enable "Launch folder windows in a separate process" inside Folder Options > View. Full credit to BrainStorm.exe for suggesting it.

However, you can add extra details with a reg hack, as suggested here. You can download the reg hack here.

Unfortunately I can't get this to work on build 1809 so I guess it does not work on newer builds.

Edit: Nice I can embed pictures now.
