Windows 10: How to display the entire path uncrippled in explorer window in title bar in W11/22h2?

W11/22h2 has a new stupid feature to cripple the title bar of the window in small fragments in order to have unuseful tabs ... with the result that the space of a single tab is too short – with the side effect that you don't see the entire path that must start with the drive letter and end at the last subdirectory name anymore. How stupid is that??? How to ALWAYS show the entire path in the title bar of a window???
