One of the first thing Windows Vista users will probably notice is there is a pretty signficant change to the way navigation works in Windows Explorer. One notable change is how you go ‘up’ a level, that is easily get to the parent folder of the folder you are currently in.
There are several ways to do this, such as:
- In the address navigation bar, click the folder representing the parent folder.
- Manually change the address location by editing the text (bah).
- Use the shortcut key Alt+Up Arrow.
My favorite and the fastest way I have found is by using the Alt+Up Arrow shortcut. This works exactly as you would expect. Additionally, you can use Alt+Left and Alt+Right to navigate back and forward, respectively.
