What's your preferred File Manager
Jibz:
It is strange that it defaults to something that looks like a Win95 app. But perhaps that is because it still supports every OS back to Win95 (and there is even a 16-bit version available for Win3.1). But it would be nice if it included a couple of styles that looked a bit more modern.
To me the functionality is more important though, and the standard orthogonal file manager interface with NC compatible keyboard shortcuts :-[.
Tuxman:
Maybe try Altap Salamander too?

Nice software but there seems to be an issue with unicode characters, cyrillic ones for instance. Strange for a CZ software...

While you are looking, keep in mind that everything you see can be changed if you don't like it...even the pull-down menus.

I am trialling it currently. Is there a way to have a multi tabs display ?
