About this tag
The up button, also known as the up a folder button, was a navigation feature in Windows Explorer that allowed users to quickly move up one folder level. In Windows 7, this button was removed from the default Explorer command bar. Users seeking to restore the up button can use a keyboard shortcut, a VBScript, or registry edits to add it back. This tag covers discussions and solutions for bringing back the up button in Windows Explorer, particularly for users transitioning from Windows XP or Vista who missed the convenience of this navigation tool.
