In Windows 10, I frequently use Alt + D to quickly highlight the path to the current folder in Windows File Explorer so it can quickly be copied. It's the same shortcut that can be used to highlight the URL in many web browsers too.

I just got a Windows 11 laptop and I noticed that pressing Alt + D doesn't do anything in File Explorer. Is there a setting I can change to get the behavior I used to get in Windows 10? Or is it gone forever in Windows 11?

I am on Windows 11 Pro version 23H2, build 22631.3155.

  • @John, I edited my post to specify which version of Windows I'm using. Perhaps I have to change a setting somewhere to get it to work, or we're on different versions of Windows 11.
