hi :) not as such but there is third party programs and a registry hack im searching for you now but have a look at this Microsoft link To change advanced file and folder settings (See the size of a folder in a tip when you point to the folder)
Change folder options
there is a free program called UltraExplorer just like windows explorer see here >>> UltraExplorer 2.0.3.1 - TechSpot Downloads
Publisher's Description
UltraExplorer is an extremely customizable Unicode enabled replacement for Windows Explorer.
UltraExplorer's main purpose is to test these components but it can also be useful to anyone looking for a Windows Explorer replacement application.
UltraExplorer feature list is aimed at making file management and navigation fast and easier then ever before:
* Fully configurable user interface
- All windows are reconfigurable with multiple docking options as well as the ability to float or be hidden
- ToolWindows have Toolbars that maybe hidden or docked in any location.
- User definable shortcut keys
- User definable visual themes
* Fully configurable layouts
- Classic Treeview/Listview layout
- Dual Listview layout
- New ListMode layout
- Any combination of the above can also be designed
* Ultra fast display rendering and folder enumeration
* Fully integrated Tabbing feature
- Tabbing is context sensitive to which listview is currently active
- "New Tab" initial location user definable
- The Tabs are drag drop aware. You can drop files on the tab to place them in the folder.
so the only way to get the file folder size displayed is to get third party software?
it looks that way but as Arc pointed out if you hover the mouse cursor over selected folder you will see the the size (make sure you have "display file size information in folder tips" ticked in folder options view settings) :)
