An early preview of the feature was originally spotted on Windows 11 build 22572, and now, a new update is out that adds support to re-arrange tabs above the address bar, similar to the web browser experience. This action was not possible in the first preview of the support, which could suggest that Microsoft is more serious about bringing this support to users this time around. However, the experience still needs work. For example, on build 22581, with the latest patch installed, it’s still not possible to drag out a tab to launch a new instance of File Explorer, and this might be one of the reasons the company hasn’t made the support officially available to testers. If you are part of the Windows Insider Program, you can enable tabs in File Explorer with these steps. All content on this site is provided with no warranties, express or implied.
