Thank you for submitting this Wish Request. I have now moved this to the WAITING AREA.

Please be sure to vote for your own wish, and for any other wishes you also support. It is also worthwhile to vote against wishes you think would be a waste of resources, as implementing those may slow down the wishes you would really like to see added.

Thanks again

Wouldn’t that be a security risk? As explorer would try to access information on the file like autoplay, generate thumbnails, etc. It would also create pop up spam unless you choose ignore & exclude option defeating the virus alert in the first place.

I have voted no, because for the inexperienced user, this would be a security risk.

I guess that an alternative option of displaying the full path to the file would be an easier/safer
option.

I vote YES for showing it if ADVANCED USER mode is enabled (does it even exist? :stuck_out_tongue: ).
Bye
