• Double Commander

  I often "favorite" such threads because of the alternatives listed in the comments. I use Multi Commander[0]. I have tried a few of the others over the years but for the last five years or more I haven't moved from Multi Commander. [0] http://multicommander.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Midnight Commander Tips and Tricks

  I like MultiCommander[1], which I've been using for many years, because it's quite feature rich. It would be great if there were some in-depth, feature-by-feature comparisons of all these two-pane file managers. [1] - http://multicommander.com. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• What are some free programs/software a PC should have?

  I have grown to rely on MultiCommander (http://multicommander.com/). It is a great dual-pane file manager that is super customizable if you want to put the time in. Source: over 2 years ago

• I am looking for an alternative file explorer for Windows 10

  If you are looking for free software, Multi Commander (http://multicommander.com/ ) is almost as good as Total Commander. Source: over 2 years ago

• HiveNightmare a.k.a. SeriousSAM – anybody can read the registry in Windows 10

  Before I forget, there is also multi-commander that uses the "filesystem approach": http://multicommander.com/ http://multicommander.com/docs/browse-registry. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Windows NT on 600MHz machine opens apps instantly. What happened?

  I use WinMerge[1] a lot, and it's always impressed me how it immediately opens to a useable state. So it's absolutely still possible to write Windows software that can open instantly. I think the biggest issue, which multiple other comments have identified, is that people just don't care. Apps open fast enough these days, and no one is pushing back on developers to improve their app's startup performance. [1]:... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Two HDDs that should have identical data on them have a 50GB discrepancy, can't figure out where the files are

  I’ve used winmerge before and had good results comparing drives. Source: about 1 year ago

• Program that deletes files that match an MD5 hash?

  However, if you're looking to compare files that already exist, you can use something like WinMerge. Source: about 1 year ago

• Mirroring my 12 TB Drive. What do I need to check to ensure all data is transferred without corruption?

  I use Robocopy to preserve the original timestamps (using the /COPY:DAT and /DCOPY:DAT arguments) and WinMerge for doing a subsequent binary compare of the source/destination (sorting the results column by which files are different). Source: about 1 year ago

• Compare two Salesforce exports

  I haven't used this one but for example https://winmerge.org. Source: about 1 year ago
