Metadata is a virtual labelling system for your files. Some metadata, such as creation date and file size, is embedded automatica­lly in files. You can add other metadata, such as comments, in the Properties window – but only to one file at a time. To label multiple files in one go, use free new tool File Commentor. It even lets you import entire documents as comments. For example, you could attach a program’s licence document to the program file as metadata.

Unfortunat­ely, the comments you create using this tool don’t then appear in a file’s Properties window. You have to drag the file on to File Commentor to view its comments. Nor does File Commentor add a right-click option to Explorer. So while it’s useful, we’d like to see better integratio­n with Windows.

To get it, click the Here link under ‘How to Add Comments to Any File’, then save and run the installer, which doesn’t contain any junk.
