“Advanced File System Explorer”

by Nick Mead about XYplorer

XYplorer is a simple to use file manager which replaces Windows Explorer with several enhanced functions and interface improvements.

What's more, XYplorer is completely portable so you can put it on a USB stick and use it wherever you want and whenever you need it. The biggest advantage this program has over Windows Explorer is undoubtabley the Move and Copy dialogues. XYplorer allows you to configure hotkeys to carry out the most common copying and moving operations that you require meaning less mouse movements and faster management of your files and folders. XYplorer also removes the need for multiple folder windows along your taskbar because it employs the use of tabbed file management much in the same way as Firefox does with internet browsing. These tabs are fully customizable too - you can drag them around, rename them, hide them, lock them and much much more. This tabbed feature does give XYplorer a distinct browser style feel especially the featuring of an address bar which accepts not just folders, but also files, URLs, and search terms. This latter function can save hours of time searching through files by allowing you to search directly in XYplorer - without any need to use Windows search tool - simply by placing a "?" between the location and search pattern.

A truly impressive replacement for Windows Explorer - once you've used it you may never go back.

Pros
  • Much more advanced than Windows Explorer
  • Allows tabbed file management
  • Allows you to configure hotkeys for file movements
Cons
  • Can be prone to crashes if too many tabs open
  • A little heavy on CPU
