XYplorer Beta Club

I would like to see the folder size in the Status Bar when it is minimized if possible.

it is shown, just switch Tools > Customize List > Show Folder Sizes.

But I think it does not work when hovering over a folder because the folder size is not displayed like in Windows Explorer.

You can see the folder content and size if you hover over a folder icon in the list.
Configured under Configuration / Information / File Info Tips & Hover Box.
For me thats much better than looking to the status bar.

For me, in details view, the folder size is not displayed when I hover over a folder.

Hover over the folder Icon in details view works for me. Here my settings:

But for some reason it doesn't work like Windows Explorer. I would prefer if it would work like Windows Explorer. I don't need to preview the files inside a folder.

I have the same problem as you,I accidentally hid the size in my operation,You can Hover the mouse over the file , try pressing "S" on the keyboard,

The XYplorer Hover Box shows contents and summary size of the first level of a folder. The Windows File Explorer tooltip on folders shows the summary folder size of all levels. The latter is currently not supported in XY in a tooltip or Hover Box. It would have to be done in a separate thread to be of any use. I'll think about it.
