Show the full folder path in Explorer's title

Quality of LifeSafe riskReversible

Sets FullPathAddress = 1 under Explorer\CabinetState. Makes File Explorer show the complete path (C:\Users\You\Projects\…) in the title bar / address context instead of just the folder name. Removes the guesswork about which of several same-named folders you're actually in. Takes effect on the next Explorer window. Reversible.

How MaxTweaks applies this

MaxTweaks applies this tweak with one click and snapshots your original setting first, so you can revert it cleanly at any time. A System Restore point is offered before batch changes, and every tweak links to its official source.
