Total Commander 7.50 released for Windows
A new version of Total Commander for Windows is available - version 7.50.
Total Commander is a file manager / windows explorer replacement that is positively packed to the rafters with features such as side-by-side windows, compression and decompression of most popular (and unpopular formats), a fully featured ftp client, file and folder comparison, parallel port linking (remember that?), directory synchronisation and much more.
In Beta / Release Candidate since April, the updated version adds a host of new functionality including full Unicode support, an enhanced help file, improved 64 bit support, improved synchronisation and a powerful search function. The user interface has also been improved with subtle yet effective tweaks.
You can view the full feature list and a massive, massive changelog on the Ghisler site but I think it's fair to say it's a pretty complete toolkit for power Windows users.
Total Commander is available in 64 and 32 bit versions, a historical 16 bit version (hey, I don't doubt there's SOMEONE out there who still needs to use Windows 3.1 for something) and even a pocket version for Windows Mobile devices.
Total Commander is shareware with a 30 day trial, after which a licence is priced at $38.
Hat tip to Remo for the heads up!

Payware file managers are not a real alternative to great free or even open source software like the FAR Manager, freeCommander or xplorer².

I'm a Total Commander fan.. but recently I change to AC Browser Plus Free version (http://www.konradp.com/products/acbplus/) since well.. it's free and it has many TC features.

Plugins. There's nothing can replace this great program with plugin support.

i have been an EXTREMELY happy registered user since 2001 and EXTREMELY happy (unregistered) user since 1997.
it speaks volumes of Christian Ghisler that he still support and develop this AWESOME software and haven't pulled "subscription" scams like some other developers. all new versions are covered by this license.
for me this is the 1st software that gets installed after windows reinstall..

and btw, unfortunately there is no 64bit Total Commander.

Don't think you can beat FreeCommander,

FreeCommander doesn't support UNICODE.... :-(

I like NexusFile V (http://xiles.net/programs/) on Windows, and muCommander (http://www.mucommander.com/) when on other platforms.

Directory Opus - shockingly expensive but also shockingly good piece of software

I have been using Total Commander for many years,
(since it was called "Windows Commander").
It's an EXCELLENT File Manager and the 1st software
I install on new PCs for my professional work.
It's not free, but worth every cent.
The author (Christian Ghisler), continues to make great updates,
available at no charge to current Users.
If you find a free File Manager that satisfies your developer needs,
go ahead and use it. I vouch for Total Commander, after years of day-to-day personal use...
Disclaimer:
I have absolutely no relationship with
the vendor or the author.
I simply think it's a superb tool for developers like me.
Just my feedback.
