For the upcoming Windows 11 Insider release 22572, Microsoft has restored an option to enable tabbed browsing in File Explorer.

A feature that Windows users have been asking for for years, and which could make their work at the office as well as at home easier!

This is a hidden option (and disabled by default) that was discovered by a developer specialized in reverse engineering, Rafael Rivera.

Note that Microsoft has not yet officially announced the return of tabs in the file explorer, but the feature is already generating positive reactions. Some screenshots published by another user show that File Explorer can handle a large number of tabs with the ability to scroll through them, as it already exists in web browsers.
