See number of files in a folder on web.

Hi I am not able to see the number of files in a folder. I selected all the files but there is no indication on number of files. I checked all the threads discussing this as well:

    That information was recently moved. You can now see it when you click the ellipsis menu.

      Bring back the number of highlighted files! Your new update, where you removed the visibility of the number of selected files makes our life difficult! Put it back the way it was before! What's with all the extra steps?! Why do you keep rearranging the interface elements?!? It's stealing our time! Thank you!

      This is so convoluted!  The number of files in a folder should be readily visible in the Folder Info.
