I just remembered that that tab isnât always visible. If youâre running a âhomeâ version of Windows, thereâs a pretty good chance you donât even see this tab.
If thatâs your situation, you can un-hide this tab:

That tab can also be hidden because:
- a group policy setting disabled it
- youâre working on a non-NTFS drive
- youâre working on a shared network drive that doesnât fully support Windows security
etc.
