does it going to replace the original windows explorer ? does it cause any security threat ?

3

Nothing beats the raw power of Total Commander. TCMD FTW

Even DOpus is much better than XYPlorer and other such clones.

4

Nope not at all.

@FreeRad: You are unaware of the scripting power of XYplorer , just give it a try.

5

No man.:S i really don’t know. Does it have a Windows API wrapper ( I use AHK for that) or just uses command scripts?

I would really like to know more.:thinking::flushed_face:

6

If its not freeware, its not worth it.

All your qtns are answered here

I have been using Free Commander as a windows explorer replacement and it works just great

9

I too was also using Free Commander uptil now.

Some things which i liked about this software

  • Easy To Use

  • Folder Color Highlighting

  • Custom Scripting [Maintain Scripts in a Side Catalogue Menu]

  • User Commands Manager

  • Sleek and Simple Uncluttered Interface

  • Multi Tabs

  • Copy Multiple Folder Name\Folder Path\Filename\File Path

  • Preview Audio and Video Files

  • The Management Interface

  • Does not interfere with Windows Explorer , runs as seperate app

  • Very Lite and less memory requirement [Max went to 15 MB]

There is much more.
