Sure thing the Windows File Explorer (or whatever it is called) looks neat and tidy and all but holly molly is it ever hard to see where one things starts and aanother ends. Because of this I find my eyes have to work harder to get where I want to. 'Classic Shell' installed for Explorer only, seems to do nothing regarding this. so is there a way to do so?
thanks

Instead of changing how File Explorer works, you could try switching to an alternate bit of software that may be closer to what you are after?

I'm not aware of a way to the appearance of the Windows 10 file explorer so drastically, but perhaps someone out there has coded an addon :).
Thanks Ian, I installed explorer++ quite good :) Not exactly what I wanted but definitely good enough. Now all I have to figure out is to have a view pane, since it does not seem to have one (it does a little at the bottom). As to freecommander, there were no photos so I do not know how it looks like an did not want to bother looking for it either. Thanks again
