Files displayed in Explore

I recently changed from ME to XP. In ME when I selected a couple or
more files in Explore, to copy or move, it would tell me how many files
and what the total size was. This was very helpful.

In PX, there is no total. Is there a way to desplay how many files and
file size totals?

Yes, View then select status bar (2nd from the top)

In Explorer (Windows) or My Computer:

View -> Status bar

Then when you select things, look at the bottom.

Also, you know once you have them highlighted, you can (continuing to hold
down shift or CTRL) right click on a selected file in the group and choose
properties and it gives you the properties for all the files..
