- [QTTabBar Document](https://www.yuque.com/indiff/qttabbar/zqtdig) - [汉化GitHub modify by indiff](https://openuserjs.org/scripts/indiff/GitHub_%E6%B1%89%E5%8C%96%E6%8F%92%E4%BB%B6_(indiff)%E4%BF%AE%E6%94%B9) - [Generate chm db document(Support Group By Module) modify by indiff](https://github.com/indiff/DBCHM) QTTabBar adds tabbed browsing and other enhancements to Windows Explorer. updated for .NET 4.8 and modern Windows. 1. Qttabbar domestic optimized version is based on sf.net/projects/qttabbar/ (2012-06-17). The original author of this version has not released it. I don't know why. Adding some Chinese features is mainly for the convenience of domestic users; in addition, the capture window of quizo official website maintained by Japanese authors is not used to all the time, so this version retains the easy-to-use function of capture window. 2. Qttabbar is a small tool that allows you to use tab multi label function in Windows Explorer. Since then, there are no windows folder and awesome folder preview functions, which greatly improves the efficiency of your work. It's like IE 7, and it's like Firefox and opera. Qttabbar also provides some plug-ins, such as file operation tool, tree directory, display status bar and so on. 3.

Run `QTTabBar Setup.exe` — it will install .NET Framework 4.8 automatically if not present 2. After installation, open a File Explorer window 3. Activate QTTabBar — the steps differ by Windows version (see below) ### Activating on Windows 10 Explorer still has a classic toolbar, so enable the bands the normal way: right-click an empty part of the toolbar area (or use **View → Options**) and tick **QTTabBar** and **QT ButtonBar**. This gives the full experience, including QTTabBar's own tab bar. ### Activating on Windows 11 Windows 11 removed the classic Explorer toolbar, so there's no toolbar menu to enable QTTabBar through. Instead, turn on the auto-attach option: 1. Right-click an empty area inside any folder and choose **QTTabBar Options**. 2. On the **Window** tab, tick **“Enable QTTabBar on every Explorer window (experimental, must restart Explorer)”**. 3. Click **OK**, then restart Explorer — either sign out and back in, or open Task Manager, find **Windows Explorer**, and click **Restart**. On Windows 11, QTTabBar works alongside Explorer's own native tabs rather than showing its own tab bar. Once enabled you get: - **Double-click** an empty area of a folder to go up one level - **Hover previews** of text files and photos/media files Error logs are written to `%APPDATA%\QTTabBar\QTTabBarException.log`. ## Build **Requirements:** - Visual Studio 2022 - [WiX Toolset v3.14](https://github.com/wixtoolset/wix3/releases) (command-line tools) - [NotifyPropertyWeaver](https://github.com/SimonCropp/NotifyPropertyWeaver) (included in `Tools\`) **Day-to-day code changes** (no installer needed): ```powershell msbuild QTTabBar\QTTabBar.csproj /p:Configuration=Release /p:SolutionDir="$pwd\\" ``` **Cutting a versioned release installer:** ```powershell .\Installer\Build-Installer.ps1 -Version 1.5.6.4 ``` This is the *only* place the version number needs to be typed — the script stamps it into `AssemblyInfo.cs`, `Installer.wxs`, and `Bundle.wxs`, then builds the DLL, MSI, and bootstrapper. (`QTUtility.CurrentVersion`, shown in the About tab, reads the version from the built assembly at runtime instead of being hardcoded separately.) Output: `Installer\bin\Release\QTTabBar Setup .exe` (bootstrapper with embedded MSI) # QQ Group * Group: [157604022](https://qm.qq.com/cgi-bin/qm/qr?k=fPZlN22xK_Y7NU60ZGMm8gIjH_u_8PVE&jump_from=webapi) * Group2: [963211351](https://jq.qq.com/?_wv=1027&k=VCPD2zLH) ## Thanks * [Original author Quizo](https://twitter.com/QTTabBar) * [indiff](https://github.com/indiff/qttabbar) — upstream fork maintainer * [SF Version Author](https://sourceforge.net/u/masamunexgp/profile) * [Donation List](https://github.com/indiff/qttabbar/wiki/Thanks-%E9%B8%A3%E8%B0%A2%E6%8D%90%E5%8A%A9) * [Donation](https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7YNCVL5P9ZDY8) * Recruit volunteers for a long time and send an email to [email protected] Or add wechat adgmtt # Thanks for free JetBrains Open Source license # Wechat Group
