    How to display files in navigator pane in explorer


    Hi. Trying to figure out how I can display in files inside of folders in the navigator pane in the explorer window. Right now I can only see the folders, but no files. Is it even possible?

    If you mean the left pane, no, it is not possible with Windows Explorer.

    I think if you type *.* in the search box of Windows Explorer, it will produce the desired effect in the Right Pane. If you then select Folders, Explorer will show the Files within Folders, and organise the results.
