PDF property column values do not appear in Microsoft File Explorer search results

Post by Jensen Head »

PDF properties are displayed correctly when viewing files in folders

but some columns are not displayed in search results

(the files in both screenshots are not the same and not in the same order, but in this case it doesn't matter)

Changing the sort column, re-registering all options in PDF X-Change Shell Extensions Setup did not help.

Hello Jensen Head,

I will ask our devs whether this is intentional or not, and if not - I will make the FR needed so that this can be included in a future build.

Update: A ticket has been created for this case:
#5915: PDF property column values do not appear in Microsoft File Explorer search results

Kind regards,
Stefan

I'll just note that now with PDF-XChange Pro 9.5.366.0 and Microsoft Windows 10.0.19045.2364 the problem of not being able to see the values of PDF document properties in search results still exists.

Hello Jensen Head,

Yes - the ticket is not yet resolved in our system. It has been opened and assigned to a developer. When it does get resolved - we will let you know.

Kind regards,
Stefan
