Win 11

any way to remove that annoying text?

pyrates999 commented 4 days ago

You're running an insider build of windows and that was recently added to it. Blame MS for that.

romafrogs commented 4 days ago

Not sure you are right, but ill try to explain the issue:

When you open folders and minimize them to the task bar " - File Explorer" is added to the title of each tab

pyrates999 commented 4 days ago

Yes, someone else mentioned that as a comment on here. MS added that.

romafrogs commented 4 days ago

Do you have a link? when im contacting MS they have no idea why is that taking palace

pyrates999 commented 4 days ago

I do not. I just remember it being left as a comment in another issue here.

what if you uninstall EP?

zhanxiaoge commented 1 day ago

After updating my system and EP today, I encountered the same issue. I have not joined the Windows Insider Preview program. My OS version is 22631.4317, and the EP version is 22621.3880.66.6.

The issue persists even after uninstalling.

Amrsatrio commented 1 day ago

So you want EP to remove the "- File Explorer" which latest Windows updates brought?

YES! We also don't know if Windows 11 will fix this issue.

pyrates999 commented 16 hours ago

It might be on purpose to let you know it is file explorer that you have open.

romafrogs commented 15 hours ago

its not on purpose. i have spoke with MS via chat - they ara clueless

pyrates999 commented 15 hours ago

Do other applications, that you have open, include "- application name" on their application icon in the taskbar when opened?

romafrogs commented 15 hours ago

no. its only for folders

Masfo commented 10 hours ago

I find it very distracting as it just repeats for all folder. It would be a nice feature to remove it and the " and N more tab(s)" when you have tabs open.
