made my own custom Windows property and displayed it in an xplorer2 column

[jimspoon]

I created the "Custom Property Test" property using CustomWindowsProperties from https://github.com/Dijji/CustomWindowsProperties.

I got the custom property to appear in the File Explorer Details Pane using FileMeta at https://github.com/Dijji/FileMeta/releases/tag/v1.6. I went into the FileMeta Association Manager and added the new property to the profile of properties for TXT files.

I entered some data into the custom property. And it displays in the xplorer2 column.

Unfortunately Dijji, the author of FileMeta, passed away in May 2021, and no one has further developed the program yet.

you are a hacker now
there are possibly easier solutions, writing a column handler, or a WDX plugin, or even using ultimate edition programmable column
