    Heya,

    This doesn't seem to work for MKV files. For option 1 no input box shows up after double clicking the field and option 2 only lets me remove tags, not edit.

    The files are saved on the computer, not flagged as read-only and I'm logged in with an admin user account.

    Any ideas?

    Hello @NuMs,

    You might see if the thread below may help with MKV file details.

    How to add details to mkv files for explorer?

    Hey I have files that already have info, but I am trying to change just the "Artist" field so I can consolidate files. Every time I change that field, or any field, it deletes all other fields that were already filled out. Is there something I need to do before I change the properties? They are MP3 files.

    Thank you!

    Hello Steve,

    The available details to see in a column in details view in File Explorer are generic. Not all file types will have the property detail available to edit.

    If you like, you can remove the "Event" detail from the column, and add one (ex: "Subject") that may be more meaningful.
