A public beta version of Default Folder X 6.2 is available, providing preliminary support for macOS 26 Tahoe. It enables DFX’s toolbar in Open and Save dialogs and makes its existing user interface fit with the new dimensions of Tahoe’s “liquid glass” UI. It does not yet include revamped icons and artwork to conform to Tahoe’s new look – those will come in a future beta release. The focus for Beta 1 was to enable all of Default Folder X’s functionality on the new system.
In addition to support for Tahoe, version 6.2b1 also includes a new feature and a number of fixes. First off, if you hold down the Command key while traversing Default Folder X’s menus, you’ll get a new submenu when you select any file. It provides Open, Reveal, Copy, Copy Path, Share and Open With commands for that file:
It’s a convenient way to work with a recent file if you want to edit it with a different app, email it, etc.
There are also a number of fixes in 6.2b1, including solutions for problems entering text in custom fields within Save dialogs, working with Save dialogs in Quick Look, incorrect setting of Finder tags in some situations, and elimination of a rare crash.
There’s a full change history and download links on the Default Folder X Testing page.
