The Clover 3 extension adds tabs to File Explorer in Windows to make file management easier.

How to get started with File Explorer tabs File Explorer tabs are already part of the File Explorer UI, provided that you’re running an up-to-date copy of Windows.

The native File Explorer on Windows 11 doesn't support tabs, but there's still a way to manage your files with a tabbed interface.

There is nothing you need to do to activate the tabs in File Explorer, as long as you've installed the Windows 11 2022 Update and its subsequent updates released by Microsoft up to November 2022.

The latest Insider build of Windows 11 includes a hidden option to enable tabs within the File Explorer.

File Explorer finally has tabs—but you'll have to join the Insider Preview program to try them out.

Windows 11 is receiving tabs in File Explorer and the latest Insider Build just received this feature for testing.

After disappearing from the preview builds, the tabbed interface in File Explorer in Windows 11 is back with several quality-of-life improvements. Still, the feature is not ready for prime time.

The latest Windows 11 build from the Dev Channel contains much-needed improvements for File Explorer's tabs. It is now significantly easier to move and drag out tabs between different windows.

You cannot select and move a tab or multiple tabs from one File Explorer window of Windows 11 to another. You can only drag a single tab out at a time and open it in a new window.
