Most of the time users Windows Ignore these pop-ups, considering that the information provided is quite summary and without any particular relevance (defaults are displayed the type of item, data to which it was created or modified and SIZE it), however, in certain situations, although they remain visible for only a few seconds, they can become irritating if they are displayed over other items to which access is desired.
