    File Explorer Ribbons Cover Top Lines of Folder


    When I open Windows 10 File Explorer from the Task Bar and choose Home, Share or View, the resulting ribbon covers the top few lines of the opened folder or files. How can I cause the ribbon to "bump" down the folder so that I can see the top few lines?

    I hope I have phrased my question coherently.

    Thank you very much.

    :)

    Hi Liam,

    In file explorer, right click and choose New - Folder

    Or at the top on the Home Ribbon, click New Folder

    I do not want icons in my folder views. How do I replace icons with file names?

    In Windows File Explorer open a folder of files

    On the View Ribbon, under Layout, click 'Details' or 'List'

    In fact click any of the options there until you are happy with the view

    Once you are happy with the view, click the Options button on the right hand side of the View Ribbon

    At the top, set Open File Explorer to: This PC

    On the View Tab of the dialog, click 'Apply to Folders'

    Click Apply and OK

    From then on all folders on your PC should look like the folder view you just set

    Click on the 'Pin' button when you open the ribbon:

    or right click on the closed ribbon and uncheck 'Minimize the Ribbon':

    (if you leave it like that, it will always open exposed)
