Icon Hints?
Hi everyone

I have a question about icon hints as known as yellow windows that appear after moving the mouse cursor on them. Many times I manually have to check few houndreds, once was also 1500+, icon hints. All of those files are/were audio files. While doing this, I have/had, in purpose to find (if it/they even exist) the files where their icon hints does NOT ( ! ) show the ''Duration'' line with data.
But moving the cursor on each icon can be very annoying, specially if you have many of them.
Would like to ask - does exsist any program, any programmed script or any function inside the program which checks the icon hints (after choosing the folders) automatically?

Thank you for reply.

I'm not sure if this will help, but if you set the folder view to Details, by right clicking the column header you can select what information is displayed (size, duration, etc). You can reorder the column by left clicking it.

Thank you for reply but it won't help because all houndreds of files are inside subfolders. In averange, one subfolder contains lets say around 4 or 5 files only. Your suggestion would be usefull for having all files into one folder. Any tool / program / programming code?
