They actually did it, the madman, experimented with tabs!

It must be sweet to be Microshit where ctrl+c'ing an industry standard feature is seen as revolutionary only because 90% of consumers are literally *forced* to eat their shit - tabs or no tabs

Yes technically is not having tabs in the file explorer. Also plasma 4 already had this.

I used some extension on WinXP to get tabbed browsing in Explorer.
Here it is in VM.

I cannot remember the name of it. Been using it so long I forgot, not even sure where it is installed to. Can't see it by name in program files and too lazy to look through loads of folders.

Who uses explorer though?

I've been on opus for years, more features than you can shake a stick at and completely customisable.

>>59888990
Finally! something that GNU/Linux and OS X had for years, that's P R O G R E S S

>>59892785
Shit, that is the one! Qt Tab Bar!
>>59893390 here

I also realized I could right click the toolbar and it showed it. Never showed on the tabs which was confusing.

>>59893379
It probably got scrapped due to not being popular, i'm gonna check if there even exists a bug open to bring back that feature.

KDE users have had this for literally years

I can't ever use a Windows system and come away from it thinking it's not broken and useless. It feels as if I'm deliberately being crippled when I have to deal with such a busted OS.

>>59894876

Follow-up

When is Windows going to have panes in file-explorer? You know, split a window, drag-n-drop from one side to the other. Like what we had with Norton Commander in the DOS days and mc in Linux and Unix?

>>59894966
it already has that. you people are being ridiculous, there is a lot of complaints that make sense against windows, but tabbed file browser? there isn't even an official filebrowser of linux other than cli utilities, how can you judge windows based on explorer when there are also alternatives just the same as there are on linux? maybe try total commander, the best paned file explorer currently?

total commander
explorer2
qttabbar if you insist that much on using the shitty explorer

>>59895022
For this logic to make sense you'd need to compare the linux kernel with the nt kernel. You'll not get a graphical file browser on any of them. If you'll be strict "linux" is just an internal component that is often not even advertised.

>>59896689
you misunderstand my logic. every distribution just about has their own file browser. caja, dolphin, thunar, pcmanfm, doublecmd, whatever the fuck else. there is no unified browser other than cli utilities such as cd, ls, popd/pushd and so on. so when people say "WOOOOOOOW LINUX HAS HAD TABS SINCE EARLY 2000S" you are really saying "THIRD PARTY FILE BROWSERS HAVE HAD TABS SINCE THE EARLY 2000S" despite windows third party browsers also having the same features. that is my logic and why it seems so stupid to me

Linux had this in 2002 in gnome
always playing catch up with windows

>>59892698
I still to this don't know what cut did on windows. I distinctively remember there was this one day where I really tried to figure out what it did but I gave up.

>>59895022
>there isn't even an official filebrowser of linux other than cli utilities
Then even those aren't "official".

You're spewing bullshit. The "official" file manager is the default one chosen by the distro or WM. All of these have had tabs for at least 10 years and thumbnails for longer than that.

I went back to Windows for the first time in 10 years for work last month. I was shocked by how primitive and undeveloped everything was. I expected Windowsto have more features than even minimalistic Linux WMs. I was wrong.

I do not understand how anyone gets real work done on that OS.

There is nothing wrong with the idea, in fact, it's a good one. Microsoft will, however, do a horribly poor job implementing it into their horribly poor system, but that's another issue.

I was using tabs in desqview back in 1989 before MS had a GUI and before apple knew what multitasking was.

And it's fucking bullshit. Just have them as separate windows that I can drag outside of the main IDE window.

Am I the only one that doesn't even give a shit about tabs?

Many times I find myself in situations where I'd rather have 2 windows open separately so I can just drag and drop shit from one place to another.
