A Windows utility that supercharges Windows 11 File Explorer by automatically converting new Explorer windows into tabs, duplicating tabs, and reopening closed ones. It runs in the background and enhances the native File Explorer tabs feature.
Use cases
- force new file explorer windows to open as tabs in windows 11
- duplicate the current file explorer tab
- reopen recently closed explorer tabs
- restore previously opened explorer windows after a reboot
- attach or detach file explorer tabs
- switch explorer tabs across virtual desktops with a hotkey
When to choose
- you use Windows 11 22H2+ and want a cleaner single-window Explorer workflow
- you frequently open many Explorer windows and want them merged as tabs
- you want tab history and window restore after Explorer crashes or reboots
When to avoid
- you are on Windows 10 or an older Windows 11 build without Explorer tabs
- you prefer separate Explorer windows per folder
- you need a cross-platform file manager replacement
