How to Use Tabs in ComfortFiles

Updated July 20, 2026

Press ⌘T to open a new tab. Tabs in ComfortFiles are real macOS window tabs — they group in the title bar, and you can drag files between them.

The basics

  • New tab: ⌘T.
  • Switch tabs: click, or the standard macOS shortcuts ⌃Tab / ⌃⇧Tab.
  • Close a tab: ⌘W.

Moving files between tabs

Drag a file onto another tab’s title: the tab highlights, and dropping moves the file into the folder that tab is showing. The same works downward — drag files onto any folder in the sidebar tree.

This covers the “two Explorer windows side by side” workflow in a single window: one tab per folder, drag between them.
