Hello everyone,
Using for years a vertical Drives Toolbar. I seem to remember -but not 100% sure- that the drive label/name was visible with a mouse-hover on DO12 and earlier, but now it's not there. Any way to achieve this? (only on mouse-hover, not permanently)
Thanks
This should work:
Thanks, but this is not what I want. As mentioned, I want the label on mouse-hover only.
What you suggest adds the label permanently on the Toolbar, and it does not add it on mouse-hover and resulting tooltip.
I think that tooltip comes from Windows (it's the same in File Explorer, at least), so the OS may be what changed if it's showing different things now.
Yes. Try unchecking Show label in the button.
This doesn't affect the tooltip unfortunately, and it's already unchecked anyway.
Well, that's odd. Works like this here on Win10/11
That's probably it. With a quick search, couldn't find a registry trick or other way to edit and enhance that tooltip.
Not a huge problem, I just thought this was part of the Drives Toolbar and thus could be customised.
I'm in Windows 10. Are you sure the 'Win11' part is a label? Perhaps W11 treats its C: drive naming like that.
Try adding a name/label to one of the other drives and see how mouse-hover works. Thanks.
Yes. Here's an untouched Win10 in a VM:
I'm using Windows 10 Home Version 10.0.19045.
It looks the same here as in lxp's screenshot.
Thanks. Please try with a non-system drive.
It also works here with a USB flash drive.
They all work. SSDs, HDDs, USB Drives, Cloud Drives, Mapped Folders 
Do you want visual proof?
Similar discussion (with pix+video):
Ok, thanks for persevering. This is so strange. Your combination of settings does indeed enable the label tooltip:
Go DRIVEBUTTONS=fixed,labels
Show label: disabled
This changes the look of the icons (the Toolbar, really), increasing the size of the drive letter and getting drives closer to each other (which I don't like but that's me):
Now, if you change back to:
Go DRIVEBUTTONS=fixed AND
Show label: enabled (any) (I use "below", but picked "right" for this example to try getting closer to the above look)
You will get:
...and the label tooltip is gone. 
Also, there's some serious confusion here with drive letters, names and labels. They all seem interchangeable.
Something is going on with the image selection of the Drive buttons? It won't change, even if other images are selected. Seems locked to the above two options, which you can't really change.
Turn the button labels off entirely if you want the letters to be drawn into the icons. (That's something that happens if labels are off, so all the icons aren't identical.)
You can also use Go DRIVEBUTTONS=iconletterson,... to force them on even if button labels are also on, but that'd usually result in the drive letters being repeated.
