So, to confirm what you’re saying, when you removed the File Meta property handler using the Association Manager, size information started appearing in the status bar again?
Note that doing this will not restore the Windows property handler, but leave the file type without any property handler registered at all. To restore the Windows property handler, you would need to restore the deleted property handler registry key manually.
I can’t add the file type to the status bar. I don’t directly display anything in Explorer, all I do is to set registry keys to list the properties that should be shown in the details pane, and the details tab in the properties dialog. I have recently discovered that I could also be setting a registry key to list the properties that should be shown in the infotip you see when you hover over a file, but I don’t currently set it. I don’t know of anything that I could do within my current scope to influence what is shown in the status bar.
Some Explorer extensions do modify what the status bar shows, so this is a possible factor. Do you have any other extensions installed?
