[[Windows 11 build 22000.51]] revamped the classic File Explorer to feature new navigation buttons, rounded corners, new icons, new context menus and a new command bar to replace the previous Ribbon UI. The title bar and command bar also has Mica transparency effects. The UWP File Explorer remains unchanged.
The initial release of [[Windows 11]] revamped the classic File Explorer to feature new navigation buttons, rounded corners, new icons, new context menus and a new command bar to replace the previous Ribbon interface. The title bar and command bar also has Mica transparency effects, in accordance with the refreshed user interface guidelines for Windows 11.


The "New" button in the command bar had been changed to a split button in [[Windows 11 build 22000.71|build 22000.71]], but later reverted to the original single dropdown button in [[Windows 11 build 22000.120|build 22000.120]].
[[Windows 11 build 22572]] introduced tabs in the File Explorer similar to most web browsers or the [[wikipedia:Windows Terminal]], although as of this build the feature is disabled by default and locked under a [[velocity]] feature. This marks Microsoft's second recent attempt to implement this frequently requested feature, as the company previously attempted to do so as a part of Sets, a feature included in some builds of [[Windows 10 April 2018 Update]] and [[Windows 10 October 2018 Update|October 2018 Update]] that allowed users to merge application windows and then switch between them using tabs.
 
In [[Windows 11 build 22572]], The tabbed browsing feature has been added to the File Explorer, however, it is disabled by default, but can be enabled by running the following command with [https://github.com/thebookisclosed/ViVe/releases ViveTool] from an elevated Command Prompt window: <code>vivetool addconfig 34370472 2</code>. This feature bears resemblance to the Sets feature, which initally introduced in [[Windows 10 build 17618]] but has been disabled since [[Windows 10 build 17704.1000|build 17704]]. As part of this change, the Filter menu, which initially appeared in [[Windows 11 build 22494|build 22494]] and later removed in [[Windows 11 build 22518.1000|build 22518]], has been re-added for narrowing down the results in File Explorer to a certain file type.
