Lock folder, but different

When backing up data over the network, I have the network drive in one pane, unlocked, as I have to navigate it, but on occasion I click in the tree when I'm in that pane, and the folder is replaced by whatever I click on. If this happens while a network (ROBOCOPY) copy is going in the background, it sometimes takes ages to go back to the network folder. I'd like to see some kind of alternate lock that would allow me to move freely in, in my case "\\LAPPY\Lappy-D", but not open any other folder in this particular tab.

And how do you define a "home", the help doesn't help at all here.

It should only be greyed out if you are trying it on a non active tab.
It is most definitely in the help.

Reading is an art...
Main Topics - Tabbed Browsing - Tabs with a Home and ... wow, there is a link to "Lock Home Zone" as well^^
