        have to move back to the original window to select a file. What
        could cause this?

    According to ":help :Explore" (quoted below), the directory browser
    will take over the current window if the file hasn't been modified,
    otherwise it will open a new split-window:


In my case the current window has not been modified. A new split-window
is not opened. Instead, the cursor jumps to another window that is
occupied by a different buffer.

This also often happens when I select ".." in the file list within the
explorer window. That window changes to show me a list of the files in
the parent directory AND the cursor jumps to a different window.

Do you use 'splitbelow'? I do, but I think Dr. Chip doesn't, which makes netrw behave in unexpected ways.


Best regards,
