Abstract

The invention relates to electronic equipment and a file path display method thereof. The electronic equipment comprises a display unit, a control unit and an input unit, wherein the input unit is used by a user to carry out the file search operation; and the display unit is used for displaying a content display area and an address bar display area in the file search process. A processing unit is used for changing the current file path according to the file search operation, displaying the information of each item under the current file path in the content display area, displaying a directory icon of each directory of the current file path in the address display area and establishing corresponding relation between the directory icons and the file path. With the adoption of the electronic equipment and the file path display method thereof, the long directory name is replaced through displaying the directory icons at all levels under the file path, so that the display space of a display unit address bar can be saved.
