When accessing folders of image files, located on a 4TB 7200rpm internal SATA drive, from within Windows Explorer, the computer takes 3-4 minutes to load the Details list of about 2Gb of files.

I have no issues accessing the same files from image editing software.

Why does it take so long to load Details from Windows Explorer?

Thanks.
