drag a window around. It also bears the name of the window or
folder you’re examining.

Tip

The title bar offers two great shortcuts for maximizing a window, making it expand to fill your
entire screen exactly as though you had clicked the Maximize button described below. Shortcut 1:
Double-click (or double-tap) the title bar. (Double-click it again to restore the window to its
original size.) Shortcut 2: Drag the title bar up against the top of your monitor.
