QTTabbar is back

Now with Win 7 compatibility

After the original author disappeared from the web (rumours say he has died in a car accident) some folks at sourceforge picked up the development again.

Is it still a 'no go' for W7?

That's what I gather from scrolling down your linked site.

I've also been running this on Win 7 x64. I found the renewed project a few months ago and am very glad someone took it up and made it work on 7. Definitely one of those must-have apps.

Basically it is tabs like in Firefox for Windows Explorer.

@Philly0381: QTTabbar adds tabs for windows explorer, not internet explorer.

Definitely a must have app! So glad it supports Windows 7 now

Hiya, Philly.... I use Directory Opus.... which is the most powerful tool on my 'puter. It's really worth the investment if you're looking for a replacement for the improved (but still poor/weak) Windows Explorer.

Take a look here...or google it....

r34l17y_h4x: I think Philly just saw the 'Explorer' part and assumed it was ie ... not a biggy, Philly. You're probably the nicest Community member around.

See mine, You will notice the Tabs. And if You follow the link to the project-page You will have them, too.

Xiandi : It uses the tabs defined in the blind.

One of the best little apps I've come across.  Been using this for a few years.  It makes having multiple explorer windows open so much better since it's just one window.  Easy to move things around.  I love it.  Sooooo glad to see it updated and supporting Win7.  YAY!

Do you mean the tabs?  Yes, they pick up the tab style for whatever skin you are using.

 

*whoops, see someone answered this already.
