Finder shows your folder path but won't let you type into it. Pathsta makes that path bar editable: click it, type or paste a folder path, and press Return to go there. It follows your active Finder window, completes folder names with Tab and can create a missing folder with Shift-Return. Free and open source. For Apple silicon Macs running macOS 27 or later.

Hi, I'm Elwan, the maker of Pathsta. I love macOS but Finder's path bar has annoyed me for years. I wanted one small change, to be able to click it, type a path, and go straight there. So I made Pathsta. It's a tiny tool that makes Finder a little less frustrating. If you try it, let me know what works and what you'd improve.
