    Display the end of the path in title bar


    In Windows 10, Explorer shows the beginning of the path on task bar thumbnails. Which often enough leads to 4 windows beginning with \\SomeShare\RD\Proj... which doesn't help in the slightest.


    I remember Windows 7 displaying the end of the path. Is there a way to tell Windows 10 to display the end as well?

    :)

    Do you have option for showing full path in title bar checked?

    Windows 10 explorer not displaying correct network path in title bar


    While there are many things I do like about Windows 10 compared to earlier versions I find it very disconcerting that explorer does not display the correct network path in the title bar. So For the actual path "\\server\documents" I am seeing "This PC > Documents". For me it is always critical I am looking in the right location otherwise there can be serious unwanted consequences. Does anyone know how I can force explorer in Windows 10 to always show the correct path and so avoid any confusion?

    Did you included this folder in library? Then it should shows just PC...

    Do you run any Tweaks program for your system?
    Edit: you can also check in registry, if correct option is selected. Check Tutorials by Brink.
