The folder tabs are above panels. You can set multiple tabs. Each tab contains a path. When the tab is activated by clicking on it, the path is loaded into the panel.

This type of WinNc tab can be pinned, to protect from path changes. When you change a directory on pinned tab, the new directory appears on new tab. 

You can add new directory tab with pressing <Ctrl + Enter> on selected directory/archive, or click on the '+' last tab.

You can close directory tab with X at the end of the tabs. If there is only one tab, can not be closed.
