A tab bar is displayed and the current folder and the new one appear on tabs. To open a folder in a new tab, hold down the Command key and double click it. The feature does not work as you might expect and folders do not open in tabs. Turning this option off also has no effect. Did it appear on a new tab? No, the new folder’s contents replaced the current Finder window contents just as it always did.
Tick it, then go to the Finder window and double click a folder to open it. To see what I mean, open a finder window, then go to Finder, Preferences. On the General tab is the option Open folders in tabs instead of new windows.
It is very easy to forget tabs, but as with web browsers, once you start to use them you will not want to go back to working with separate windows. Tabs are mostly straightforward, although there are some features that work in non-obvious ways. Apple introduced tabs to Finder windows several generations of macOS ago and they are useful when working with files and folders, but do you know all of the tab tricks and shortcuts?
