Now you won't have to use an alternative to explorer just to get the tab function. :)

Freeware application QT TabBar adds a lot of useful functionality to Windows Explorer, most notably a tabbed interface. QT TabBar offers a lot of other small tweaks, like the drop-down preview you see in the screenshot and few toolbar buttons that add entries like "Recently Closed" or favorites. It's a little peculiar to set up, so be sure to check out the Manual.html file in the download for install instructions.

For tabbed browsing you can use explorerxp as well (www.explorerxp.com). It has some other useful features as well
