Browsing Add Tabs to Explorer in Windows 7

Some years ago Microsoft made Internet Explorer 6 able to allow you to open multiple web pages in the same browser window Sadly if you used it, it became cluttered when a few pages were open.

Again sadly Microsoft forgot to add this feature to Windows Explorer in Windows 7. The result is that when you need to look in two different folders, you have to open two Explorer windows.

However, help is at hand from a small Windows extension.

The answer is to install the QTTabBar []

Then 1. Open a Windows Explorer window and press the [Alt] key to show the main menu bar. 2. Click View > Toolbars, and tick/check the option QT TabBar. 3. The tab bar will be displayed, and you can create new tabs to view a number of different folders.
