How to enable tabs in Windows 11 File Explorer
On December 19, 2017, Microsoft launched Windows 10 Preview Build 17063. In this version, Microsoft added a new feature called Sets. The Sets function is based on the Microsoft Edge browser and supports both Explorer and Office software, and can enable multiple tabs in the browser at the same time. That is to say, different types of resource windows can be opened simultaneously in the browser window, including but not limited to web pages, folders, and various documents. This is a very innovative new feature. Unfortunately, Microsoft cut off this feature in subsequent tests.
In the just-launched Windows 11 Dev Build 22572, some developers found that Microsoft hides the File Explorer tab mode. But we can open it through the ViveTool tool. After opening, you can open multiple subfolders in the form of tabs in the resource manager at the same time. It is a pity that it should be in the early stage of development, so it is not possible to use Alt+Tab to switch quickly, that is, it can only be switched by mouse click for the time being. Subsequent support for shortcut key switching should significantly improve user operation efficiency, and it will be very easy to switch between multiple folders if needed.
