Windows 11 带来了相当多的变化(quite a few changes)。虽然底层功能与Windows 10相同，但新版Windows的外观和工作方式与以前略有不同。
新Windows更新的最大焦点是用户界面 (UI)。从Windows 8(Windows 8)的失败中吸取教训，微软(Microsoft)一直致力于简化和精简界面，使其比以往任何时候都更容易导航。
这种新的设计理念在改进后的Windows 11(Windows 11) 文件资源管理器(File Explorer)中最为明显。作为任何用户最常用的应用程序之一，默认的Windows文件资源管理器已经过全面检修。但是这些变化是改进还是削弱了原来的？让我们来看看。
全新面貌
打开文件资源管理器(opening the File Explorer)的第一件事就是全新的外观。所有图标(icons)都已重做，使整个窗口的外观更干净、更清晰。
顶部功能区的大小和复杂性已大大降低，只保留了几个图标，而不是一行中的一堆文本。这种房屋清洁早就应该进行了，有助于保持界面整洁。
当然，您仍然可以通过关闭三点菜单来访问其余选项。
动态布局
您还会注意到不同窗格中的变量视图。以前，默认视图是Details，您可以从顶部功能区中选择其他视图。虽然它有效，但在不同类型文件夹的视图之间切换是很烦人的。
但是，默认布局会针对不同类型的文件夹自动更改。例如，打开Downloads会为您提供旧的(Downloads)详细信息(Details)视图。
但是切换到图片，布局会改变以更好地反映文件夹的视觉性质。
这可能看起来不多（因为您仍然可以从顶部更改视图），但默认情况下它使演示文稿更直观。
简化的上下文菜单
您会注意到的另一个重大变化是重新设计的上下文菜单。在Windows 10及之前的版本中，右键单击文件资源管理器(File Explorer)中的任意位置会出现一系列选项。现在，您将获得一个更加精简的菜单，显示的选项更少、更有用。
请注意上下文菜单顶部的一小排图标。Cut、Copy、Rename和Delete等(Delete)常用(Common)选项已被表示为图标，以节省空间并减少视觉混乱。其他选项也有类似的图标，可以更轻松地一目了然地找到每个选项。对于那些没有标签的人来说，将鼠标悬停在图标上会显示其名称和键盘快捷键。
那不是全部。如果您复制一个文件，然后右键单击任何文件夹中的空白区域，您将获得一个带有粘贴选项的不同上下文菜单。在Windows 11 文件资源管理器(File Explorer)中，粘贴(Paste)图标更靠近您单击的位置，而上下文菜单本身则保持在屏幕中间。
例如，在屏幕顶部附近单击鼠标右键会显示如下图所示的菜单。
如您所见，粘贴(Paste)的图标位于顶部。但是当我们右击底部时，图标也会移动。
出牙问题
在大多数情况下，新的Windows 11 文件资源管理器(File Explorer)就像做梦一样工作。一切都更加精简，更容易发现您需要的选项。但是，强调删除文本标签并用图标替换所有内容一开始可能会令人困惑。
例如，上下文相关的粘贴(Paste)图标会因其意想不到的位置而让经验丰富的Windows用户望而却步。许多其他选项已从菜单中删除，只能通过选择显示(Show)更多选项来访问。
然而，老实说，这些只是会随着时间而消失的小问题。该界面肯定比以前更直观，可以轻松管理不断增长的自定义选项列表，使界面变得混乱。
新的Windows 11(New Windows 11) 文件资源管理器是否值得(File Explorer Worth)升级(Upgrade)？
每隔几年就会推出一个新版本的Windows操作系统。(Windows)如果事情变化太大，重新学习一切都是痛苦的。如果它变化太小，甚至没有理由升级。
Windows 11 达到了最佳效果。新功能主要集中在美学和性能上，而不是批量创造新体验。从新的开始菜单(Start Menu)到任务栏(Taskbar)，一切看起来都好多了。Apple的影响很明显，配色和圆角让它看起来很像Mac，但没有人抱怨。
尤其是文件资源管理器(File Explorer)，效果更好。杂乱无章的菜单已经一去不复返了，有利于统一的选项。一堆文本菜单条目已经一去不复返了，取而代之的是更易于阅读的图形图标。新图标也更简单、更干净，与保持事物整洁的整体范式相匹配。
基本应用程序在所有重要的方面和一些不明显(few that are not readily apparent)的方面都得到了改进。开始适应一些新的变化可能会令人不快，但不是一个艰巨的挑战。总体而言，我们强烈建议为新的文件资源管理器升级到Windows 11，如果没有别的。
Windows 11 File Explorer: An Honest Review
Windows 11 has brought quite a few changes. While the underlying functionality remains identical to Windows 10, the new version of Windows looks and works a bit differently than before.
The biggest focus of the new Windows update is the user interface (UI). Learning from the debacle of Windows 8, Microsoft has worked on simplifying and streamlining the interface, making it easier to navigate than ever before.
Nowhere is this new design philosophy more apparent than in the revamped Windows 11 File Explorer. One of the most used apps for any user, the default Windows file explorer has gone through a complete overhaul. But do the changes improve or detract from the original? Let’s take a look.
A Brand New Look
The first thing that stands out upon opening the File Explorer is an entirely new look. All the icons have been redone, giving a cleaner, sharper appearance to the whole window.
The top ribbon has been dramatically reduced in size and complexity, retaining just a handful of icons rather than a bunch of text in a line. This house cleaning was long overdue and helps in keeping the interface clutter-free.
You can, of course, still access the rest of the options by bringing down the three-dot menu.
Dynamic Layout
You’ll also notice variable views in different panes. Previously, the default view was Details, and you could select other views from the top ribbon. While it worked, it was irritating to juggle between views for different types of folders.
However, the default layout changes automatically for different types of folders. Opening Downloads, for example, gives you the good old Details view.
But switch over to Pictures, and the layout will change to reflect the visual nature of the folder better.
This may not seem like much (since you can still change the views from the top), but it makes the presentation more intuitive by default.
Simplified Context Menu
Another significant change you’ll notice is the reworked context menu. In Windows 10 and before, right-clicking anywhere in the File Explorer sprung a laundry list of options. Now you get a much more streamlined menu, with fewer, more useful options shown.
Note the small row of icons at the top of the context menu. Common options like Cut, Copy, Rename, and Delete have been represented as icons to save space and reduce visual clutter. The other options get similar icons, too, making it easier to locate every option at a glance. And for those confused without labels, mousing over an icon reveals its name and keyboard shortcut.
That’s not all. If you copy a file and then right-click over the empty space in any folder, you get a different context menu with the paste option. In the Windows 11 File Explorer, the Paste icon is put nearer to where you clicked, with the context menu itself remaining toward the middle of the screen.
For example, right-clicking near the top side of the screen presents a menu like the image below.
As you can see, the icon for Paste is at the top. But when we right-click toward the bottom side, the icon shifts as well.
Teething Issues
For the most part, the new Windows 11 File Explorer works like a dream. Everything is much more streamlined, making it easier to spot the options you need. But the emphasis on removing text labels and replacing everything with icons can be confusing at first.
The context-sensitive Paste icon, for example, will throw off experienced Windows users by its unexpected location. Many other options have been removed from the menus and can only be accessed by selecting Show more options.
To be honest, however, these are just minor issues that will go away with time. The interface is certainly more intuitive than before, handily managing the growing list of customization options cluttering up the interface.
Is the New Windows 11 File Explorer Worth the Upgrade?
A new version of the Windows operating system rolls out every few years. If things change too much, it is a pain to relearn everything. If it changes too little, there is little reason even to upgrade.
Windows 11 hits a sweet spot. The new features are mostly centered on aesthetics and performance rather than creating a new experience wholesale. From the new Start Menu to the Taskbar, everything looks much better. There are obvious influences from Apple, with the color scheme and rounded corners making it look a lot like Mac, but no one is complaining.
The File Explorer, especially, has come off better. Gone are the cluttered menus tricky to make sense of, in favor of consolidated options. Gone are a bunch of text menu entries, replaced by easier-to-read graphical icons. The new icons are also simpler and cleaner, matching the overall paradigm of keeping things clutter-free.
The essential app has been improved in all the ways that matter and a few that are not readily apparent. Getting used to some of the new changes can be jarring at first, but not a steep challenge. Overall, we would highly recommend upgrading to Windows 11 for the new file explorer, if nothing else.
