File Explorer Missing Disk Space Readout From Drives With Long Names
So, basically.. I know exactly what is happening here, but I don't know how to fix it. This was something changed in an earlier update that I've been putting up with for a few months now.
I tend to use longer names for my drives to keep things organized and looking nice. It used to be that if a name was too long it would truncate the name in file explorers tile view, basically the end of it would fade away behind the drive letter. What it does now, is it puts the rest of the name and/or the drive letter on a second line, moves the bar indicating disk usage down a line, and completely removes the actual digital readout of drive space. If I shorten the name it returns the readout, but I would prefer not to have to do that. Does anyone know a way to make this return to its old behavior?
For what it's worth, I AM on the Insider Preview builds (16299.19 currently) but seeing as its been doing this for some months now, I believe it would do this on an up to date consumer build as well.
Here is a screenshot if you can't quite understand what I'm describing.
