Windows Explorer doesn't show keywords

[Dave]

When I use Windows Explorer to navigate and search through my files (using
the View - choose details - keywords and other selections) I can't see the
keywords - even though they are part of the file (can view in file
properties). I can see the Author, Title, Subject, Category, Comments -
everything that is in the file properties except keywords. Is there a setting
I'm not selecting?

I think: NO

Thank you Bernd - Does this mean I can't see the keywords using windows
explorer? Even though I can attach keywords using file properties?

Short answer: YES
Long(er) answer:

These keywords are designed only for use in searching documents.
With many keywords it makes no sense to show them in a column in WE.
