I would like to implement a feature that displays an additional column of data in file Explorer similar to the following figure. It's easier to set this up directly in file Explorer, but I need to code it, so I guess this is some kind of registry configuration too, and I want to modify the registry to do just that.

Secondly, if the implementation of such a function, I also want to fill the display data through the code, this step should be how to achieve.

Hope can help me, preferably can have C# sample code. Come on.
