Show Path in Windows Explorer
I want to be able to see the path in Windows Explore. I have checked the box in Folder Options to do just that, but it still does not show the path.
Any suggestions??

Hello Huffman,
It appears that showing the full path in the title bar of Windows Explorer only works if you are using the "Classic theme".

Probably a bug in Win 7. I don't have the Classic Theme. I have the command in Classic Shell4 + a command called "Copy as path."
I remember in Win XP that I did "Display full path" endlessly, because it wouldn't stick.
