I just double clicked in a blank part of a windows explorater window to go one level up, does it happen to other people too?

I know it is really stupid, but it made me laugh a lot!

I can highly recommend XYplorer to replace Windows Explorer -> you can go one level up by double-clicking in empty space besides tons of other good stuff too - give it a try, it replaced WE for me after Vista came with it's rather lame explorer...
It's so much faster to work with.

Development is very active and support is outstanding :-)

I'm not affiliated but a very happy user,

Cheers,

cool appz !
but, personally i avoid this kind of appz , cause it's really easy to be addict and when you change of Pc or if you have to show something on the pc of someone else, you're lost without it..;)

That is true, working with the normal explorer is a pain.
For instance: Opening a folder with 10k mixed files sorted by date takes Windows Explorer 40 seconds here, in XYplorer it's instant
AFAIK XY works from a stick including portable file associations so moving around isn't much of a problem... ;-)

But hey, I was just inspired to post this by tanabiers doubleclick-in-a-blank-space post :-)

Cheers,
