New Bothersome Behavior in Win 11

Built-in Tabbed Browsing in Windows Explorer Conflicting with Groupy 1

August 28, 2024 12:21:36 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Had Groupy for a couple years now but a recent Windows 11 update added tabbed browsing to windows explorer and now this happens. The functionality doesn't seem to be impacted much but this is annoying and distracting. If I didn't use Groupy for Excel I would consider turning it off because of the interference rom Windows Explorer tabbed browsing. Can this be fixed?

I don't have Groupy 1 anymore, but in Groupy 2, checking "Do not replace tabs" in the settings takes care of this issue. Since you are now on Windows 11, you should consider upgrading your license, or if you have an active Object Desktop subscription, Groupy 2 is included.

Thanks Pelaird, I wasn't able to find that setting but I did find one that helps a bit. Changing from "combine if possible" to "always place above" at least gets rid of the overlap. Still not ideal but better than it was. Thank you again. Hopefully there is an actually fix for this but you definitely made things better for me with your suggestion.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. But, from what I know you actually need to upgrade to Groupy 2 to have tabs replacement features for Windows 11 explorer.

Thank you.

Groupy 1 is not designed for Windows 11.  You would need Groupy 2 which is available for purchase from the Stardock store.  I believe existing Groupy 1 customers are eligible for a discount on this,

Thanks for the direction to Groupy 2. Groupy 1 is working just fine for the most part in Windows 11, it's just this one issue that I've run into so far.
