Windows 10: blue File menu on File Explorer

The File menu on Explorer has some useful shortcuts





If you select / highlight a folder in File Explorer and and then pick Open Command Prompt, then the Current Directory (CD) in Cmd is the folder selected in file Explorer. You don't have to change directories in Cmd.

File Explorer has gone crazy after last nights upgrade.

My only has icons instead of full descriptions. I can not get back to a point where I have tabs that actually say something. Please tell me how to get my view repaired? help... Help.... HELP!!!

 

Win 10 - File Explorer Crashes

Hello MSFT Support,

Where have you gone?...this is a major issue for many loyal customers but as you can tell frustration is setting in with many in the lack of direction from Microsoft. I feel like we are trying various home remedies when the problem is with Microsoft File
Explorer which we rely on being stable and available.

Having us go to SafeMode is not a solution, also you could create more problems for customers in that BitLocker may come into play, which doesn't appear to be easy way to suspend this in non-Enterprise versions of Win10 before rebooting into SafeMode.

Please give us some direction or when the fix will be implemented?

It would be a real shame if you lose loyal customers to Apple or Google but lack of leadership here may steer many in that direction.

Best Regards!

 

Nice.. how do you get to that?? Dumb question I know but I can't find it. *Sad

Hmm ... you just click on the blue tile that says "File" in the upper left corner of the explorer.

 

Just realized the same menu is in Win 8.1 but the "Delete History" Option has been changed to "Change Folder and Search Options in Win 10.

 

Yeah, I wondered if I just missed that feature in Win8 - good to know and thanks.
