Finder Windows 1.6.1 for Mac
Put an end to your daily Finder woes! Finder Windows is a floating panel that provides instant access to your list of open Finder windows at any time. It eliminates the daily hassle of searching for the right folders among a constantly changing list of open windows. Now you can simply glance at the list and select the desired window, or instantly close those you no longer need.
The Windows Finder is the perfect tool if you:
– regularly use the Finder on your Mac
– constantly keep several (or even many) Finder windows open
– don’t use Finder tabs (which you find cumbersome or useless for managing files)
– constantly reach for the Windows Finder menus, wondering why things can’t be simpler
Now you can always see a list of open folders and instantly find the one you need. Try it yourself and see how much easier Finder makes working with Finder.
Finder Windows 1.6.1 for Mac: What’s New
Zevrix Solutions has released Finder Windows 1.6.1 for macOS, a small but handy utility for anyone who juggles a lot of open Finder windows. Instead of digging through Apple’s built-in Window menu, the app keeps a floating panel — or a menu-bar list — showing every open Finder window at a glance.
What’s Fixed in 1.6.1
The headline fix in this release addresses a visual regression on newer macOS. <cite index=”32-1″>Version 1.6.1 restores custom icon display on macOS Tahoe and later, after that behavior had broken somewhere in the 1.6 line.</cite> In practical terms, <cite index=”32-1″>if you’re running Tahoe and rely on folders with custom icons or colored labels, 1.6.1 is the build that brings those visuals back into the window list.</cite>
This follows two other recent fixes: <cite index=”32-1″>the earlier 1.6 release, from February 2026, addressed excessive memory use, while 1.5.18 reduced CPU load specifically on Apple Silicon Macs.</cite>
What the App Actually Does
Finder Windows is built around one simple idea: giving power users an instant overview of everything they have open. <cite index=”34-1″>It shows each open Finder window along with its name, folder icon (including colored labels), and optional controls to close or minimize it, with minimized windows displayed in italics.</cite> <cite index=”34-1″>Clicking an entry brings that window forward instantly, and windows can be closed or minimized directly from the panel without needing to locate their on-screen chrome.</cite> The panel is flexible about how visible it stays — <cite index=”34-1″>it can float only while Finder is the active app, or remain visible across all applications.</cite> It also supports basic file management, letting users <cite index=”34-1″>drag files from Finder directly onto an entry in the list.</cite>
Who It’s For
<cite index=”30-1″>The app is aimed squarely at people who use Finder heavily, tend to have several — or dozens — of Finder windows open at once, don’t find Finder’s tabs a good fit for their workflow, and are tired of hunting through the Windows menu just to get back to a folder.</cite>
Availability
<cite index=”32-1″>Finder Windows requires macOS 10.13 High Sierra through macOS 26 Tahoe and ships as a Universal Binary, so it runs natively on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.</cite> It’s a lightweight download at under 7 MB, and <cite index=”30-1″>it’s sold as a one-time purchase for $9.95.</cite>
