Windows XP and Explorer - Display Folder Path in Explorer Title Bar

When you open a subfolder from Explorer in Windows XP, such as C:\Downloads\Games or C:\Multimedia Files\Graphics, only the name of the subfolder, such as "Games" or "Graphics", appears in the folder's title bar. This way you can quickly glance at a folder's title bar, or a folder's button on the Windows Taskbar, to see exactly where it is located on your system.

1. Open any folder in Explorer.

2. Choose "Tools" then "Folder Options".

3. When the multi-tabbed dialog box appears, select the "View" tab.

4. Check "Display the full path in the title bar".

5. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.
