 Please consider widening (or allowing the user to widen) the new windows explorer tabs so we can see, at a glance, what drive/share that tab is open on.  Right now, if I have 5 tabs open, I can't tell which is which without clicking each one and looking at what is displayed in each tab.

 Hello Royce,

Thank you for your request. We plan to add a popup tooltip window that will appear on mouse hovering over a tab.

For a while, you can enable the "Display the full path in the title bar" folder option:

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thank you!

 ctrl + t to open a new tab would be sweet.

And one for closing a tab would be nice (ctrl + w closes all tabs, as in window).

 Hello, Will

To add a new tab use the shortcut that opens a new explorer window: "Windows key + E".

"Ctrl + W" should normally close just one tab, not the whole container window. We'll try to fix it and will notify you when/if it's fixed.

Best regards.

 Easy enough, thank you sir.

BTW I was in Romania in 2014. Very nice place. Was hoping to make it there this year but just found out I won't be able to. :(

 Whoops, meant to mention another issue.

Check out what happens if you tell it (C:\Program Files (x86)\Actual Window Manager\TabbedContainer.exe) to maximize explorer windows.

Rule:

Quote
Name: Actual Window Manager - Explorer Windows

Windows caption: Actual Tabbed Explorer

Substring Match

Program: C:\Program Files (x86)\Actual Window Manager\TabbedContainer.exe

Startup tab:

Open as Maximized

You get dual tool bars. And then when you minimize the window you get dual set of scroll-bars (both horizontal and virtual).

Top bar of screen gets off as well.

See attached screenshot for example.

I was unable to reproduce this issue. When does it happen: when you open any explorer window in any way?

Could you send us your configuration files using the Send to Tech Support tool (Configuration module > Tools > Configuration > Send to Tech Support)? Please add a link to this topic to the email.
