Finally! File Explorer tabs found hiding in new Windows 11 preview

Wouldn’t it be great if File Explorer could show you different folders in the same window, using the tab system we all know and love from our favorite browsers? Well, it can. All you have to do is ditch Microsoft’s standard file manager for a third-party alternative, like you already ditched Internet Explorer a decade or two ago. But as it’s done with Edge, Microsoft isn’t resting on its laurels with its home-grown file management program. The latest Windows 11 preview

Save $180 on this massive 16TB external hard drive

Right now, Amazon is making it cheaper to get a ridiculous amount of storage. The online retailer is selling a WD Elements 16TB external hard drive for $270. That’s down from a more recent price of $300.

This is a desktop hard drive, which means it requires its own power source instead of drawing power from a USB port. It’s also bigger than your average portable pocket drive.

WD doesn’t include a lot of extras with this drive, which might be a good thing for some folks

Rock out with these JBL wireless earbuds for $50

Listen up! If you want a decent pair of true wireless earbuds at a good price, we’ve found them. Amazon is selling the JBL Live 300TWS earbuds for $48.70. The deal price covers the white model only. That’s down from the more recent price of $75.

When we reviewed these earbud, we gave them 3.5 out of 5 stars. “Those on a budget will find the JBL Live 300 TWS’s many features, equalizer, and good sound quality (with tweaking) worthy of consideration,” we said.

You can now try GeForce Now’s RTX 3080 tier one month at a time

GeForce Now is Nvidia’s cloud gaming service, and you can try it out for free. But of course, you get what you pay for: The free version of the service has some fairly strict time limits and its visuals are limited. Back in December Nvidia opened a super-premium tier powered by remote GeForce RTX 3080 graphics cards, especially handy for anyone who couldn’t actually buy one, but it was limited to a six-month purchase. Today you get an option to try it out one month at a time.

4 lessons Microsoft can learn from the Apple Mac Studio

Apple’s new Mac Studio not only includes what could be the most powerful processor in the PC landscape, but also exposes (and solves!) many of the weaknesses of its direct rival, Microsoft’s Surface Studio. If Microsoft takes these lessons to heart, however, imagine what a Surface Studio 3 could look like!

Microsoft’s gorgeous all-in-one hasn’t been refreshed in years, but its iconic swiveling 28-inch PixelSense touch display captured both hearts and minds when the $

This Excel certification training bundle is on sale this week for $39

Microsoft Excel is the most prolific spreadsheet software in the world. It’s been that way since the 1980s and likely will continue to be for years to come. It should come as no surprise, then, that possessing expert knowledge with it is as practical as ever.

Which is why The Professional Microsoft Excel Certification Training Bundle is so noteworthy. It offers all the education required to turn virtually anyone — even a complete beginner — into a proficient Exce

How to create an insane multiple monitor setup with three, four, or more displays

By now, a dual-monitor setup has become commonplace. Multitasking on a single screen is just way too confining. But why stop at two displays?  I can speak from experience: Having multiple monitors (and I’m talking three, four, five, or even six) is just…awesome, and something you totally need in your life.

Right now, my main PC has a triple-monitor setup: my main 27-inch central monitor, with a 24-inch monitor on either side. I use my extra monitors for a number of things,

Windows is getting new video-editing and family apps

On Wednesday, Microsoft announced two new apps that will be arriving on Windows 11 soon—first on test builds for Windows 11, but probably soon on the stable release path, too: Microsoft Family and the Clipchamp video editor.

The two new apps are part of the Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22572 for the Dev Channel, which normally means that the new changes and additions may not make their way to Windows 11 users in general. But, like many tweaks Microsoft has made recently, these hav

Piracy favorite LimeWire returns from the dead…as an NFT marketplace

Remember LimeWire? If you’re of a certain age (like the author of this news post), it was probably your first exposure to peer-to-peer file sharing, and subsequently, the rampant music and software piracy of the dot-com era. Though LimeWire’s reputation as a tool for illegally sharing copyrighted material eventually sunk both the platform and the company, the name is returning later this year to… ugh… sell NFTs.

The new owners of the LimeWire brand, Julan and Paul
