There used to be a reg hack for 98 that allowed you to add an attributes
column to Details view in Explorer:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
In the right pane, look for the entry named ShowAttribCol
Right-click ShowAttribCol and select Modify.
Change the Value Data entry from a 0 to a 1

This doesn't seem to work in XP
How to then...?

Hi

Try this:

Right click the bar at the top of the columns and select 'Attributes'.

Right-click the grey title bar with "Name", "Size" etc. Select
"Attributes".
