I'm guessing thats probably the new WinUI 3 explorer. I will take a look at it soon.
@kaiwizz Can you tell me your full windows version? It should be at the top when you open a cmd window.
It should be something like Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22621.2428] .
I just tested on the version above and everything worked fine (two windows both with multiple tabs). I am asking for the version you are using so I can decide whether I should update to a pre-release insider version.
@Onurtag Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22621.2428].
@kaiwizz Thank you. It looks like this right?
@Onurtag yes.
@kaiwizz I pushed an update but I'm not sure if this will fix your problem. Download the new version, test it and let me know if you still have problems.
@Onurtag Tested your new script today. So Far I have not faced any issues. Thanks a lot.
@kaiwizz Great! Thanks for the bug report and the confirmation.
@Onurtag , the latest Windows update broke the script again.
I think the issue is, after the current Windows update, "- File Explorer" is added to the path as, "C:\Users\testUser\Documents\folder\subfolder - File Explorer\"
@kaiwizz Thanks for the detailed report! I am now updating my win11 setup to the latest release preview.
It is easy to just strip the "- File Explorer" from the string but that might not work on any other language so I need to see it for myself.
@kaiwizz I have updated the script with some changes, let me know how it works for you now.
I tested the script on 3 different Windows 11 versions but I was unable to replicate the error that adds the - File Explorer string to the folder path. This might be caused by the A/B testing system used by Microsoft.
If the script is still not working I might need some extra info like your current windows version (its visible on cmd) and whether the script is broken on every folder or just a few folders like pictures, videos etc.
@Onurtag
Thanks for the fixes, it's working for me now.
From cmd, Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22631.4169]
@kaiwizz Great to hear!
@Onurtag , The last Windows update messed up the script, it is not working for tabbed windows anymore for me. It is actually not working in single folders if I am in some folder other than the windows folders like Documents or Downloads.
