Hey all, apparently I'm not calling these things by their correct name. When I'm in My Computer how do I stop the yellow "Information Popups" from appearing when my mouse cursor hovers over a file? Googling this just gives me links to malware-related sites.

Thanks,

Joe B
 
Is there anything in Folder Options/ View, that can be unchecked to stop the display of file size information in folder tips?
 
Try Googling "disable Tooltips", I think that's what you want, but didn't take the time to read thru the results
 
LOL, yes there is. Wow, I've searched and searched but never found that one. Thanks for the "nudge" in the right direction.

Thanks,

Joe B
 
Thanks jknichols but linney's response did it for me. in fact, I'm going to give linney a star because this is for one of the users on my network and now I'm going to look like even more of a hero.

Thanks,

Joe B
 
Your thanks suffice, glad to assist. Stars always remind me when I was 5 years old and in the first years of school, still they were happy days and worth remembering.
