File Metadata

The final element of the package is a file Association Manager, to turn file metadata support on (and off) per File Extension, which is how Explorer knows to allow you to see and edit the metadata. This will not let you interfere where Explorer already knows how to handle a file type, e.g. Office documents or mp3s. This package does not replace existing support from Windows or 3rd party software, but works alongside it. And because Windows Search uses the same property system (from Vista on), you can also search using your metadata, both in Explorer and from the Start Menu.
