Specify user defined value for Type field in Windows Explorer #40

Closed mohankumarv2005 closed 4 years ago

Hi,

I would like to how to specify user defined value for Type field shown in Windows Explorer for Files/Folders instead of just showing "File folder" for Directory & "Text Document" for Text File.

My requirement is to set a user defined value for a Directory let's say to "My Folder Type" and for a Text File to "My Text File" in Type fields.

Please see the attachment for reference.

Thanks, Mohan Snap

This is not something that is done via a file system. In general Explorer uses the file extension to determine the file type.
