   i started using this when i was in school. this was cool file manager+text editor it was all nice apart from the fact that if you don't understand any language apart from english then It will be difficult for you to understand it's advanced features like plugin's and all. i mainly used this for writing code.

   🏁 Competitors: there is no one who can compete with this vintage beast.

   👍 Pros:    This is very light weight file manager+code editor so even if you have old pc you can run this with full speed.|If you do competitive programming then this is for you this editor is so accurate that even sublime text fails in front of this vintage beast.|As name suggests file manger you can manage your files better than any other code editor's like clion,sublime text,visual studio code etc...|If you understand all features of far manager you will litrally get addicted to it.

   👎 Cons:    As most of the instructions are in russian or ukranian you might find it difficulty in start.|As most of the istructions for advanced features are in russian or ukranian you might find difficulty to install some plugins.

• Why is does it say 61gb???

  That's alss why I consider FAR Manager to be the only legit Windows file manager. Source: about 1 year ago

• [List] Let's talk about the software you can't live without. Here is my list

  There's only one legit NC clone nowadays, that is Far Manager. Initially written by Eugene Roshal (of WinRAR fame), it meanwhile is OSS. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Contrarian here: What legacy software will they have to pry from your cold, dead fingers before you give it up?

  You'll probably like FAR Manager then. Source: over 2 years ago

• Any "Miller Columns" a.k.a "Cascading List" File Manager for Windows? (Screenshot)

  Have a look at onecommander at https://onecommander.com/ it has a nice and flexible column layout (at least in v2 that I am using). Maybe that's what you are looking for. Source: about 1 year ago

• Replacement for QTTabBar?

  You might also check OneCommander it's a TotalCommader alternative but maybe it will fullfil your needs. Source: over 1 year ago

• What useful software or programs do you install right away after building a Gaming PC?

  OneCommander is probably the best File Explorer alternative I've come across so far, I haven't done a deep dive on all the possible features, but it's in active development, and pretty in-depth already, so I think it might be worth taking a look at. Source: about 2 years ago

• Honestly , windows 11 is great !

  One Commander as my default explorer, and use that miller column navigation,. Source: over 2 years ago

• Files V2 looks more native to Windows 11 than the inbuilt File explorer.

  Now testing One Commander V3, which alleviates all the issues, plus now I am a fan of miller column and its navigation. Now I can see why Mac users like it. So far so good. Source: over 2 years ago
