Hello everyone!
I have updated my 12.10 ubuntu to 13.04 and I realise that there is no option in open new tab in folders, as there was in previous versions. Is it possible to reenable it?
To be more precise:
In the past while I was viewing one of my folders, there was the option to click File/new tab and it would have opened a new tab, duplicating the folder I was viewing. Now there is only possibility to open new window.
Thanks in advance!!!

What file manager are you using? Thunar, Nautilus, Dolphin...???

I guess it is Nautilus. When I choose the About file option it says 3.6.3 and when I click license, I find the name Nautilus but not the others you mentioned

Thank you very much!!! Ctrl+T works. However, I don't know what is the gear menu.
