I wanted to have Finder in macOS Mojave show the full path of any folder with which I was looking.
This is a nice feature to have, but isn't default, alas. I also couldn't find a Preference for it either.
Thankfully the internet had the answer here: -
Using the Mac's Hidden Finder Path Bar
Namely to run this: -
defaults write com.apple.finder _FXShowPosixPathInTitle -bool true
and then this: -
killall Finder
Now I can see where I'm going....
Nice.
The Lifewire hack also shows how to disable the feature: -
defaults write com.apple.finder _FXShowPosixPathInTitle -bool false
killall Finder

Thanks for the tip. I've wondered how to do this and had even started naming common folder names (e.g 'languages') that I use more than once in different paths with a prefix, so I can could tell them apart when they all came up in Finder. Thanks again! Drew
Hi Drew
Yeah, it's been something for which I've been looking for a while, but not too seriously - until now.
Really really glad that it's of use to you as well :-)
Cheers, Dave
