How to display the full path in File Explorer on Windows 10

In Windows 10, the File Explorer's address bar shows a portion of the path to the current location, using the drive and folder labels (e.g., This PC> Local Disk (C :)> Users> Documents ), instead of the full logical path (for example, C: UsersusernameDocuments ).

Displaying this way makes the path more user-friendly and easy to navigate, as you can use the right arrow to navigate other parts of the relevant location. Although you can disable this behavior, but if you want to see the actual path of the current location, File Explorer includes an option to display the full path in the title bar.

In this tutorial, TipsMake.com will guide you through the steps to display the actual full path for the current location in the File Explorer title bar on Windows 10.
