Default Windows Explorer

Hello,

I open two Windows Explorer windows and tile them to move/copy files and
folders. At the moment, I open the first window and navigate to the file I
want, then I open the second window and do the same again.

Is there a way where I can open a second instance of Windows Explorer so
that it automatically opens at the same location as the first instance.

Thanks in advance,

Here's how you do it:

1. Open Explorer and go to the folder of your choice, with that folder
selected in the folder list to the left and its contents displayed on the
right.
2. Right-click on the folder in the list to the left and click "Explore" -
this opens a second instance showing the contents of that folder.

Not that I am aware of. There are many Windows Explorer alternatives that

will help. Here is a good place to
start:
