Sets is still dead, but perhaps some more Tabs might help?
Microsoft has sent a fresh build of Windows 11 into the Dev Channel, and eagle-eyed insiders have already spotted some hidden treats among the updates. As well as new and updated inbox apps, Build 22572 features more user interface tweaks. This time it was the turn of tabs in File Explorer. Users enabling the feature would be forgiven for experiencing a jolt of déjà vu. After all, didn’t the company tinker with something called “Sets” back in the day, aimed at grouping applications together, before yanking the poor thing from Windows 10 when it all got a bit too complicated? The idea, it seems, has never really gone away. Tabs in browsers are commonplace nowadays and Microsoft’s foray into open-source terminal emulator territory with Windows Terminal is a handy example of how useful tabs can be.
