      Hi. I’m new to Tabbles, but I think I successfully performed a series of auto-tags and the app shows the files as tagged correctly. However, when I go into Windows 11 File Explorer for the same files, properties shows empty tag values in all those files. Am I missing a step?

      Also, is there a way to copy auto-tag  rules?

      Thx, Gary, NJ

      Hi Gary,

      the tagging can not be stored in the file’s own metadata in the file system, cause Windows an NTFS don’t offer that feature.

      All the tagging is stored in Tabbles’ database.

        Thanks, wondered about that.

      Hi Gary! It sounds like you’re off to a good start with Tabbles, but it seems like the tags might not be syncing properly with Windows File Explorer. You might need to ensure that the Tabbles app is set to update file properties correctly or check for any sync settings within the app. As for copying auto-tag rules, that could be a handy feature—hopefully, Tabbles will have an option for it soon. Thanks for sharing!
