    Not usually. Information is uncountable.

    Welcome to the forum, korg. "Informations" would have been a good title for your thread.
    The answer to your question is no. "Information" can refer to a specific fact or a collection of facts. It is uncountable and we do not add the"s".

    Welcome, korg.

    I agree with the the responses given by SoothingDave and riquecohen.

    However, there are sometimes situations in which the apparently impossible becomes acceptable. If you could give a little more information about an occasion in which you saw or heard 'informations' and thought it might be correct, we may be able to comment usefully.
