Sensitivity column in Windows Explorer populated

Hi 
Does anybody know when the sensitivity column in Windows explorer will be populated? Currently the only way I see which label is applied to a file is either through AIP unified labeling client, sharepoint document libraries or open a file.

 

Thanks for a feedback.

 

Best regards

Philipp

    We would like this feature also in Windows10/11 Enterprise Edition. User adoption of AIP labeling will be greatly aided by making the sensitivity labels visible in file explorer. Additionally, it would much more convenient for users if AIP Labels were options in right click ajax drop down menu instead of having to launch unified AIP/MIP Labeling client. Additionally, I would be very helpful to users to see the Purview Retention labels in file explorer. Especially in local OneDrive folder. Retention Labels should be added to OpenX metadata extensions, so they stay with files.

        Nir Hendler we also have a strong business requirement to see the classification of files in the explorer. This would help us to manually classifiy already existing data and also to see if and how other File-Formats like PDFs are classified. The Workaround using the Adobe Plug-Ins for Reader and DC is not really an option just to show the classification.
        Is there any update on this "sensitivity column in Explorer" Topic? Timeline?
        Can you explain a little bit, what makes it so hard to add this?
