    Hi, you could try the Details Pane in file explorer:

    Thanks dalchina, unfortunately comments doesnt appear in keywords section. In details panel - the top row - right click - add more metadata attributes. I pick there keywords, but they dont appear in the picture you just sent. I cant send a photo, since I have win10 in my native language.

    Hi, that may be because I have a clever extension - free - in place - File metadata
    Download File Metadata 1.5
    CodePlex Archive

    I commend this to you.

    You can post a screenshot by using the Insert Image icon above your post (left of the video icon)

    Actually according to those links I posted you shouldn't need that for jpg's/images.. but it is interesting for music and some video files. Quite safe to play with.

    Try Properties, Details too (as per links).

    What you can change will likely vary with file type.

    Hi, I've no idea at all what "Masters keywords" is meant to be... and a quick google search shows nothing. You could try further searches. Some columns are particular to certain file types e.g. those that relate to video or audio files.

    These two fields work, just as an example:

    Note: I believe the way this works is that all available fields for a file type are listed in Properties, Details.
    Those are the only items for which you will see data in the corresponding columns in file explorer.

    How to add keywords to a metadata-more-details.jpg
    Hi, dalchina
    I dont get it. Why they give you choice to pick more details, but you can not fill them up.
    Nevetheless, in win10 if I fill tags, they appear in keywords section, and title=description. In win7 it was much easier.
    Maybe, like you said, different files have deffrent details. Thanks a lot ones again.

    absolutely.. for example, "Total bitrate" - an available column heading- is inapplicable to an image file.

    That said, in a folder - say Pictures- you might expect only column headings applicable to pictures to be available.
