One of the most anticipated features in Windows 10 has been, and still is, the support for tabs in the 'File Explorer'. After many years of ignoring user requests for this, Microsoft seems to have to add this feature to the operating system.
However, reports indicate that these will not just be tabs like in a browser. They will be entire sets of capabilities that will bring tab support to all applications in Windows. In other words, this is expected to change the very interface of 'ten'.
Initially, this feature was available in test versions for insiders, but then the company decided to temporarily withdraw it, explaining the need to continue working 'behind closed doors'. According to sources from Redmond, this will help improve the tab functionality.
Since then, there has been very little information about it, but now there are indications that the company plans to bring this feature back. Rich Turner, the Chief Program Manager of Windows Console, responded to a question about tabs on Twitter, stating that this feature holds an important place on their list of planned tasks. This means that tabs or sets may well receive a 'green light' in a future version of Windows 10, albeit within a different approach.
For now, these are mostly assumptions. One thing is certain — there will definitely be no tabs in the May build of Windows 10. It is assumed that if the company is indeed working in this direction, the feature may appear in one of the 20H1 builds, though this functionality is also absent in the existing images.
