AeroBar: Show Titlebar Text in Explorer Windows Under Windows Vista




Have you ever wondered why Explorer Windows don’t show titles in Windows Vista? In earlier versions of Windows, we could see titlebar text in explorer windows but it has been removed in Vista. No one knows the reason and many ppl want to enable it in Vista. It was removed most probably bcoz it doesnt look good in new glass interface and you can see the path in new Vista addressbar breadcrumbs.

Now no need to worry. There is an utility “AeroBar” which can enable titlebar text in Vista explorer windows.

Just install this utility from here:

Run it and you have done. Now every window will show titles. No need to install. If you like it and want to use it, then you can add its shortcut in Windows startup.

To remove it, simply End task “AeroBar.exe” from Task Manager.

    Also you can double click on AeroBar.exe when it is active to end it before removing, it acts like an on/off switch.
