    New explorer layout breadcrumbs path dropdown window too small


    The down arrow on the new explorer layout shows other locations. The dropdown height is good, it shows multiple locations and even lets me scroll down to view more.I could not upload images on this forum so here is a linkhttps://i.imgur.com/FlQEVTG.pngThe tree dots on the other hand is really small and only shows 1.5 items, making me scroll to view more. I'm expecting it to be as big as the down arrow I mentioned earlier. https://i.imgur.com/ED8WgXA.pngIt does look like the file content section is "over" that dropdown, but if you zoom in closer, the dropdown border actually starts to curve,

    Change windows explorer address bar height and dropdown spacing

    Hi there,

    Not too sure what this is called, but how do I reduce the height (marked as the red line in the screenshot) without affecting the breadcrumb font size? Also how do I increase the spacing in the dropdown, as they look real cramped up to me..

    Dropdown showing document path

    In Mac, you can right-click on the filenamein the title bar of a document window and get a dropdown menu showing all the enclosing folders in the file path of the document. Furthermore, you can select from that dropdown to open that enclosing folder.
    Is there a way to do this in Windows?
    Yes, I know that you can do Save As, but that is more steps than I would like and also that doesn't allow me to open any of the enclosing folders easily.

    File Explorer address bar dropdown only shows 2 paths

    Hi,

    How is the number paths in File Explorer's address bar dropdown controlled? I have not been able to find any information on this. For me (recently upgraded to Windows 11), I only see 2-3 paths which is nearly useless. I would like to set the number of recent paths that are shown in the dropdown to 10 or even 20. How can I do this?

    Thanks!
