Duplicate a tab in Windows Explorer

(not via the "+" button)

from Stardock Forums

Hello!

Is it possible to duplicate a tab without using the "+" button and the dedicated option? For example, when I middle-click on a folder to open it, I’d like to be able to open it multiple times in separate tabs, just like in a web browser.

Currently, if I already have a folder open and I click on it again (from anywhere), it just takes me to the already open folder.

Keep up the great work!

Hello,
Not really sure on your question, don't the "+" key open another tab in your system?

Thank you.

Yes the "+" key open another tab but let's imagine that I have 10 tabs and I would like to duplicate my second or third tab. Without moving them to the far right, close to the "+".

To get something like this (in Firefox). 


For example, in Firefox there is an entry in the context menu:



> Also, when I middle-click on a folder (already open in Explorer) to open it again, it doesn't open a new tab with that folder, but instead forces me back to the tab where the folder is already open. Do you see the point? ^^
