Explorer Breadcrumbs: Get Vista Like Address Bar in XP

One very handy feature of Windows Vista is its Explorer’s breadcrumbs navigation address bar, which simplifies the browsing/navigation in Windows directories.

Unfortunately it isn’t present in Windows XP, but if you’re on XP, you can still get the same navigation pleasure after installing a little addon for Windows Explorer.

If you use XP, and dont know about this feature, then you may need to give Explorer Breadcrumbs a try.
After installing this little addon for Windows XP Explorer you will get the exact same look and functionality of breadcrumbs Navigation as you see in Windows Vista.

Explorer Breadcrumbs contains a contextual series of buttons that allows you to quickly see and navigate through the entire folder hierarchy without leaving the current window.

You can jump to any folder or subfolder in the hierarchy of the folders that you have navigated through. To do this you can use the drop down menu beside each folder in the hierarchy to jump to that directory without opening the new explorer window.

Window Vista users know the benefit of this thing very well, but if you have decided to stick with XP, then this little addon is definitely handy and worth trying!

You can also move the toolbar. Just drag it from the left corner and drop anywhere you like in Explorer window. Like I placed it above the Explorer navigation button.

You can completely remove the default address bar and drag and drop the Explorer Breadcrumbs replacing the default one.
