You should have a look to TotalCommander (http://www.ghisler.com), it replaces Explorer with tabs. But it does really much more (command line, ftp, winzip, search, fast directory creations, edit files with same application, view images, ...), directory compare, multi-rename, ... Thanks for the pointer Dimitri. I use a few tools to give me some of the additional functionality that you point out TotalCommander has built in: WinMerge, IZArc, FileZilla and I have used Bulk Rename Utility in the past. I'm sure that one day I'll see how having it in one application works for me.

Quick a nice little app.

Do you know how to associate a shortcut key to open it? i.e. Win + E for explorer.

I wish my Excel 2003 was tabbed…..
Always have several open, from test data, scripts, results, config etc etc..

You want the option on Tools/Shell Extensions/Win-E Hook. Thanks for the Comment
