Opening multiple folders in the same File Explorer window?

335 views Asked by At

In Windows 11 you can open multiple folders in the same window as "tabs" (example).
Does Python have a way to open multiple folders in the same File Explorer window?

I know you can open multiple folders with os.startfile(), but it opens them in separate windows.
And yes, I have the "Open each folder in the same window" option enabled and "Launch folder windows in a separate process" disabled in File Explorer.

I understand that this is a new feature, so it's probably not possible yet, but I'm just wondering if it is.

What I tried

I tried os.startfile(), creating a batch file and running it, and subprocess.Popen().

What I expected to happen

I expected it to open them in the same window.

What actually resulted

It opened them in separate windows.
