   PowerDesk Pro 9 - a Sad Farewell

   I've used PowerDesk from version 6 to version 9, in Windows XP to Vista to 7, 8, 8.1, and 10. With each platform migration, it was harder and harder to install PD. I finally bought a new package to go along with my Windows 11 Professional desktop. Unfortunately, the software not only doesn't work, but the technical support people are not native English speakers. Between extraordinarily thick Indian, Eastern European, and allegedly French Canadian accents, I LITERALLY had to bring in a translator. At the end of it all, they couldn't install PD, because it's not coded for Windows 11.

   AND, based on their almost fanatical insistence on my "trying technical support" (three times) and refusal to graciously offer to refund my purchase price, I'm having to escalate this into a Collection Event with my bank getting involved.

   Thus, Avanquest has lost me as a customer, despite their once unquestionably-superior program. Their product's (former) greatness has been drastically exceeded by their p**s-poor customer service.

   👎 Cons:    Extraordinarily-poor customer service|Failure to say that powerdesk 9 doesn't work under windows 11|Technical support is a joke

• Uploading Photos in Original Resolution

  Personally, I simply connect my Android with USB to my Mac and drag photos and videos around. Btw, I use Commander One for that (you need the Pro pack). Source: 12 months ago

• I use a PC at work but we’re supporting an event that requires us to work on Macs - what should I know about the differences in file organisation?

  The free version of Commander One will serve most peoples needs: Https://mac.eltima.com/file-manager.html. Source: about 1 year ago

• Help for an apple user choosing his first android phone

  I can heartily recommend Commander One, a kind of two-pane Finder app. Not only useful for many things on your Mac, but it enables you to mount your Android on your Mac, make new folders, transfer files etc. Yes, it is $30, but you will not regret your purchase. Many other similar tools are not half that good, or even downright frustrating. Source: over 1 year ago

• Does it exist something better than FileZilla for Mac for free?

  Commander One is free (there is also a pro version) https://mac.eltima.com/file-manager.html. Source: almost 2 years ago

• A good alternative to Path Finder?

  Commander One is pretty cool. I hear you about the subscription model. I'm happy to subscribe for apps that are crucial for my workflow (incl. Path Finder) but I wouldn't want to set up repeating payments for apps that I didn't use so much. Source: about 2 years ago
