How do I get descriptions to show in TakeCommand?
I'm trying this - no description shown with dir /Z

DIR /Z is correct.
Do the files listed actually have file descriptions? Try DIR /A and see whether there is a file DESCRIPT.ION in the directory.

They really don't seem to be working. DESCRIBE makes a data stream but donsn't put anything in it.
Code:
v:\> d /: sav*
2021-01-02 22:39 2,288 savedcommands.txt
v:\> describe savedcommands.txt /D"saved commands"
v:\> d /: sav*
2021-01-02 22:39 2,288 savedcommands.txt
0 {4c8cc155-6c1e-11d1-8e41-00c04fb9386d}:$DATA
v:\> d /z sav*
savedcomman→ 2288 2021-01-02 22:39I had to go back to v25 to get any descriptions. And now (having given ONE DESCRIBE command, I see this which is inaccurate in v25. In v27 I see no descriptions at all.
Code:
v:\> describe savedcommands.txt
Describe "V:\savedcommands.txt" : saved commands
v:\> d /: sav*

Hmm. I was just trialling the software, and it doesn't look worth buying if features are left broken for so long.
"Already" seems quite generous for something that seems to have failed at v25 and not been fixed until v27.0.19 :) Still, yes, it does seem to work now.
Does it actually put the description into one of the NTFS properties I can see in things like Windows File Manager? Now, that *would* be worth the admission fee...
Hi Tim
Oh, okay, didn't know that (since v25) ... uhhh, sorry about that and thanks for clarification!
