....  and the breadcrumb navigation in AC Browser Plus is just perfect - this is the way it should be !!!   
Unfortunately I can not deal with the multiple overlapping windows in ACBP too well.

I think its been mentioned but is still a relative unknown. I really like Ac Browser Plus especially how well it handles archives or at least zip files.

If you like AC Browser plus, you might be interested in the option to alter the menu entries to suit your habits/taste better.  You can go to the subfolder: International\English\translation.ini.  Open that file in a text editor and you can change the menu entry text.  There are still a couple of items that cannot be edited in this way, but I found the odd English of the original menus a bit annoying.  This is where you would create a translation file for an unsupported language if you were so inclined - some details are in the file header.  I like some of the tools for file management, but the shortage of ways to invoke external editing software is a drag.  I found the lack of hotkey customizability not to my taste, so I was taken with the ability of Free Commander to make whatever hotkey you like work for the operation of your choice.  Free Commander also allows you to use the built-in viewers or invoke an external viewer like Universal Viewer (a Total Commander connected program - uses several TC plugins).  You can also specify programs to open a user-defined list of file types for editing (F4 key - or whatever hotkey you want to use).  Free Commander also has a portable version, but one warning, the .ini file is not the same as the non-portable format, so you have to enter your customizations separately for each - you cannot just copy the .ini file to transfer settings.  I am a keyboard fan and with the navigation keys definable to keys that make sense to me, I am in 7th heaven!

hi BinderDundat,

thanks for the tips.  But the one thing, that is missing from AC browser Plus (which leads me to use it rarely) is a dual-pane layout (preferably a tabbed dual pane option).  The problem for me are the multiple independent overlapping windows.  With dual-pane I actually believe it might be the best file organizer.

curious how that is :tellme: :)

cmpm:
The tabs are on the bottom of AC and use the Window dropdown to tile the open windows -2- vertically or horizontically. So you don't have to manually resize the windows.

I have breadcrumbs, but it doesn't appear in AC.
