Techie Buzz: Replace your windows explorer with something better

  • ReviewSaurus · 2 years ago
    Well, I've tried Xplorer2 and indeed it is good but later on I've just started using windows explorer once again. As I was just too much used to it.

    Anyway, very nice blog :)

    Never tried any Explorer alternatives. Thanks for the list, will try them soon! :)

    @Shankar you should definitely try one out, if you are addicted to tabs then this is the right replacements.

    Very good info man. I just tried QTTabBar, and its pretty good. The only problem I've found that is a little annoying is when exploring folders, if you hit the back button, it takes you right back to the 1st folder instead of the previous one. Unless I am missing something with a setting, it is still a very good freeware. I still think Total Commander for me though works best. Its very customizable and simple to use.

    Hey E-Rock,

    Why don't you try out xPlorer2 its much better and i prefer that now.

    Yea I just tried the lite version of xPlorer2 and it runs fast, not bad at all. Thanks for the suggestion Keith, I will play around with it for a bit and see how it compares to Total Commander.

    I don't use Windows Explorer, but I'll give these alternatives a try.

    I use avant browser. It looks like Explorer and mozzila.

    I've never tried any alternative of windows explorer. Actually, I feel that I have no reason to find new alternative but I will try your list. Thanks!

    Magie this has definitely added value for me, and save me tons of time copying and pasting files and working with multiple files simultaneously.

    I found xplorer2 to be good, but it really suffered from a lack of an essential undo option.
