Has Quad-Directory Explorer a single tree that can be used for all panes?


Yes, you can use a single directory tree for all 4 list views in Quad-Explorer Q-Dir, it doesn't matter whether is it Windows 11, 10, 8.1 Server 2016/2012 or other Win OS!

3.) ... Does it make sense to use a tree structure for all Explorer windows?



Just like the MS File Explorer directory tree under Windows 10 , this can also be adapted in Q-Dir in order to work with one or more directory structures and various individual options via the menu item "Extras" ► "Directory structure! Exactly right if not ►► Directory tree in the Explorer address line

1.) Switching to a tree structure, for all 4 Explorer windows!

1. As always ►► start your Quad Explorer for MS Windows

2. Go to: 
"Main menu" > "Extras" > "Tree-View" > "One 4 all"

PS :
That's it for better folder management, the directory tree is an important reference point for many Microsoft Windows users when opening directories and navigating through the Windows directory structure, making it all the more important to use the correct directory tree!

2.) Bold font in the directory structure!


Changing the directory structure to bold type 

If you do not want to use a color like in the list view, you can switch to "simple bold" to see the tree structure in simple bold font or the option "I hate colors" to disable both!

3.) Does it make sense to use a tree structure for all Explorer windows?


Deciding whether it makes sense to use a tree structure for all Explorer windows depends on a variety of factors, including individual work style, file management, and personal preferences. Here are some considerations:

Organizational preferences: Some people prefer the tree structure because it provides a hierarchical view of files and folders. This can be particularly useful when working with deeply nested directory structures.

Flat Structures: In some cases, flat structures without a tree view can be easier to handle. This is especially the case if you only work with a few main folders or files.

Efficiency: Using a tree structure can be more efficient when you need to quickly navigate between different folders. Expanding and collapsing directories allows you to focus on specific areas.

Screen space: On small screens, the tree structure can take up too much space and obscure the display of file names and other details. A flatter view may be preferred here.

Work context: The work context plays a role. If you frequently switch between different projects, a tree structure can help you stay organized.

Search features: Modern file explorers often offer powerful search features that allow you to quickly find files regardless of folder structure. In such cases, the structure of the folders is less important.

Habits: What you are used to and what you feel most comfortable with also plays a role. Some users prefer the tree view because it provides a clear structure, while others prefer to work with a flatter view.


Depending on the task or project, it may also make sense to switch between tree view and flat view. Many file explorers allow you to choose between different display options. Experiment with both approaches and decide which one works best for your way of working.

  My question is not there in the FAQ
Asked questions on this answer:
  1. Just discovered QDir. It looks good with 4 vertical columns. Is it possible to double click on a folder in column 1 so that it expands in column 2?
  2. A single tree that can be used for all panes instead of separate treeviews for each, especially for the dual-pane mode. or is there already that option? i cant find it.
