I don't think there is a way to get the info for a single file. Remember
that what "the detailed files" does is read the directory info - so it
would not be significantly faster to read the info for one file than it
is for the whole folder.
Ideally (for performance) you'd sort the list of files you care about by
folder, then visit each folder in turn, get the detailed files, make the
decision about each of the files in your list, then move on to the next
folder ...
