Description Ok this is for those who installed Windows 8 M1 and want to get Ribbon UI enabled on their windows explorer like M3 leaked screenshots. It can be done easily with the following registry tweak :

1. Create such a key in registry:

HKEY_CLASS_ROOT\CLSID\{4F12FF5D-D319-4A79-8380-9CC80384DC08}

2. Create a string value in this key called "AppID", set its value to "{9198DA45-C7D5-4EFF-A726-78FC547DFF53}"

3. Now start a new explorer window

If someone is not so familiar with reg changes and prefer a ready made file i suggest to download the batch file provided here..

Log off or restart and you'll have Ribbon UI in Explorer

Credits are going to MDL's forum member NaiveUser who has posted this detailed guide to enable this feature in the leaked build..guide can also be found here :
