Default Folder comments

Why is there no provision for posting a comment inside a hard drive folder.
It would be useful for informing others of important file information or
other things. Some kind of one-liner that would sit in a folder just like a
file.

Hi Bryan,

I just create an empty TXT file and place the comment as the name of the
file. You don't even have to use an extension. i.e.

1 - Don't save files in this folder.txt

Good for "one liners".

Not sure if this will work with WinXP, but it is supposed to work with NT4.

May be worth a shot - try the link below
