Just updated this test install to 23H2 and now my address bar/ribbon looks the same as yours... At least that little mystery is solved... The update completely breaks my problem office PC though... :-(
So I thought to check how it looked on another machine. I haven't messed about too much with this Windows 11 install, pretty much just installed chrome & let it sit there. This installation also has the ribbon above the menubar.. However, Groupy 2 installed reasonably well. At first it looked like it didn't take, but after I'd closed the
I don't suppose you've got any ideas how to revert Explorer without doing a reinstall of Windows? Restoring the defaults via the Options dialog doesn't achieve anything..
Looks about normal to me. No native tabs - I never went down that rabbit hole because I was running Groupy 1, and wanted to group more than just Explorer windows. Maybe I tweaked a registry setting to get rid of them when they became part of Windows 11?
No worries, thanks for that...
Nope, I'm not doing that, mostly because I already have done most of that, and it didn't end well.. I wasn't able to resolve the issue the bad update created, so my Windows was freshly installed. And of course the update came down again & messed things up again, but this time I was able to determine it was the update that caused it. So I uninstalled the update & so far, apart from Groupy, everything's been fine. I've shitcanned that update with the WHSHOWHIDE app, And
Well, that really didn't make things better :-)
Umm, the purge batch file didn't work correctly. It didn't force the reboot it said it would, and I was greeted with an instance of Groupy when I manually rebooted... :-\
I shall give that a go first thing monday morning.. Thanks for your help so far, have a good weekend... :-)
Tried scf, it found one file & repaired it - btmodem.sys, so probably not related. So I gave dism.exe a try anyway, that did nothing as far as I could tell. I also uninstalled & reinstalled Groupy 2 because at one point when I installed it, the tabs were integrated in the background during the installation process, but as soon as I made a change to the settings, they moved above the titlebar... Anyway, I'm stumped... What's the next step?
So I managed to fix the explorer ribbon, but still no luck integrating the tabs...
Yeah, thing is - I didn't think it'd worked, and I don't remember what I did to make it happen... :-\ what started this whole thing was a bad update that didn't play well with the Windows 11 file explorer ribbon in dark mode... prior to that, I was happy enough with Groupy 1... :-|
I was just thinking it might be due to the presence of the Quick Access toolbar when I realised that I'd managed to enable the Windows 10 style ribbon - and now I can't work out how to get the new Win 11 style ribbon back! :-\
Hi there, Yes, I'm certainly after some help with getting Groupy tabs to integrate with Explorer. Ta,
I'm also having this problem, but I'd prefer to fix the issue rather than disabling the feature. Window version here is 22H2 Build 22621.1702, Groupy is 2.12 and for one last tidbit of information, the Windows update "October 10, 2023—KB5031354 (OS Build 22621.2428)" made a mess of Explorer, breaking dark mode & rendering much of the toolbar unreadable, so I've uninstalled it & hidden it..
