Full folder's content size when i open a folder

actually, i have to select items one by one. so i get items numbers report & total size report.

i want that automatically when i open a folder.

&.... a Bug:

if a subfolder is present among files, total size report is:

Lost/unrevealed.

Where do you see the text "lost/unrevealed"? A screenshot would be helpful.

it's not a text, nor application's popup,
it's a statement, of a missing result: lost > unrevealed > or avoided..

"no size report"

I don't know where you are seeing this missing size. When I select some files and some folders I see the combined size of the files and the folders are just ignored.

instead of disappearing on the left/classicshell bar, it would be good to retrieve total selected folders size during multiple selection, file/folder..

Your arrow points to the original Explorer's status bar. The Classic Shell status bar is under it. If you look in the other corner you will see the total size of 249 KB.
You can disable the original status bar from the Folder Options dialog.

Thanks, i disabled the internal status bar of windows explorer. but please try to implement it:

"it would be good to retrieve total selected folders size during multiple selection, file/folder.."

By selecting folders too, classicshell retrieves folder size (entire content size) too..

& thanks to have fixed the startmenu buttons right click menu.

If folder size is implemented in the status bar, it will lead to performance impact however I believe it *can* be implemented as a property sheet:
