Also don’t forget to enable “Details pane” under View tab of the Windows Explorer for easy one click tagging and Batch tags (eg. by selecting multiple files and applying tags at once).

I work in a shared file server environment. I downloaded and tested the file meta association app on a stand-alone computer and it worked as described. I do have a couple of questions:
1. Will the file meta association app work on a file server? If so, can it only be applied once to the file structure on the server (say, by an Admin user) so that all other users will be able to see and use the tags?
2. On my standalone system, I tried using multiple tags but the “group by” view option failed to sort accordingly. With only one tag, no problem. Are multiple tags allowed?

Hi, this worked fine for me for pdfs, but after I added file meta handler for png and then msg Outlook email files, my Windows 10 File Explorer started crashing (ie window just closes automatically) when I tried to view tags or change tags in new folders. The folders I had already set tags for were OK.

Ie for new folder, setting view tags at top of File Explorer crashed it, or selecting a file or files then clicking details tab crashed it, is this a known issue or any tips? I downloaded 30/10/18 version
