Selecting file to delete in explorer shows FileSize: 0 bytes

[lundman]

As displayed in the Are you sure? dialog box

Attempt to find out where this size comes from and why it is wrong.

This looks like a Windows Explorer bug (at least in Win 10) to me.
I can reproduce the same issue with a NTFS formatted USB stick.

Only happens to files on the 'root' of a removable drive.
So, in sub directories the dialog shows the right size.

Oh really? Guess I never checked, just assumed it'd be correct - huh

I couldn't figure out 'where' the Delete dialog got the wrong '0 bytes' info.

After a while I googled around, and saw a obscure reddit thread on Win10.
That let me to checkout out a NTFS formatted USB stick on Win10.
Which showed the same issue.

So, won't investigate much more for now if NTFS formatted drive shows same bug. ^.^

Is this issue still occuring?

[lundman]

This happens with NTFS as well, appears to be more of a Windows bug and not something we can fix. However, it does indeed still happen.
