Windows 10: How do I change file explorer to show all the folders I have clicked on to be displayed at...

How do I change file explorer to show all the folders I have clicked on to be displayed at the top? That's how it used to be and now it's different. Ex: I click folder X, then within X I click folder Y, then within Y I click folder Z. When I'm in Z I'd like the folder path to be neatly displayed at the top like it used to be so I can click and drag to move items from Z to Y or X
