    File Explorer: Any way to make full path appear in title bar/copy and paste it?


    Hi,I've been searching for an answer for this, and all I could find was this closed thread from a while ago: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/file-explorer-not-displaying-complete-path-for/995f4719-8685-4e26-9d9d-bb6f25909a3a?page=2. I was just wondering if an answer has been found since then, and also add a note about shared drives: Some other users mentioned "My Documents," and another non-network folder, but I don't believe that's the issue, since I'm having the same problem with shared network drives. Hope that helps a little.Like I said, my issue is with shared

    :)

    Windows Explorer Copy and Paste problems

    Hi,

    The copy/paste problem could be due to Windows Explorer issue or faulty keyboard.

    Wewould like to know some information to better isolate the problem:

    • Is the issue also happening when trying to copy/paste any Office files, or is it only happening in Windows Explorer?
    • Have you tried other ways like; right-click + Copy, then right-click + Paste?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    We will wait for your reply.

    Taskbar folder name explorer title bar full path

    I don't think you can achieve both at the same time.
    If you uncheck 'Display full path in Title Bar' in Folder Options, then you'll get the single location on the Taskbar Folder, but, then you'll have to rely on the location bar for the full path.
