I might tell you all that total commander is invisible to all our customers, none i repeat none is using total commander! We catalog them and store them for references and preferences and some other things too like forensinc. So from my personal experience and from my teams from all the departments i can make a true estimation of total commander usage, since we do keep track of I can't give you a estimate based of our montly amount, except that they are many! We deal with sell,exchange,repair,upgrade almost anything hw and sw from servers sides,gov,schools,uni,industrial you name it everything! Any serious user of any sophisticated software knows that you must pay to support the efforts of developers their work is invaluable for us power users.įirst of all i work with a lot of computers. TC is very fast (its navigates/responds much faster than Windows file explorer), the built-in help is excellent, the email support is excellent, the forum is excellent, and needless to say is actively being worked on. TC's Windows roots and focus is also very important. Then when I dug for the features and settings I need, I quickly realized TC is an extremely mature, powerful, customizable (with things that users really need or always wanted), programmable, and well thought-out program. Total Commander seemed 'bland' for the first 10 minutes or so. I never tried XYplorer simply because its written in VB6 (abandoned language) and the author does not seem to care (read the forums) that there will never be a 64-bit version because of that. FreeCommander appeared really nice at first, however after extensive use I realized it was extremely slow/clunky and there are simply too many customizing features that have nothing to do with improving the user experience (just distractions). A couple are ridiculously overpriced with an unintuitive interface. Most are not actively being worked on (abandoned). I spent months researching/trying file managers. I wanted to add to jiangzhenjerry's comment (who finally added something meaningful). Horst.Epp you should delete that account. Here is a small open sauce or free list for your pastas ! Today TC is only used by people who still think that the earth is flat and those who are unwilling to see more than 2 meters ahead, or just by some fans that think of using alternatives the world would come to an end !įunny even russians have abandoned TC and this do tell a lot ! Majority have migrated to Open Source(s) alternatives, alternatives are plenty and rich featured(s) that will do the daily lite or heavy tasks the same or even better than TC and most important cost nothing ! The main reason that the "Since bug reports have decreased significantly" is because smart people still use and continue to use old versions of TC since old versions do the job well and don't crash like never versions or are incredible buggy. Thanks for everyone helping with the beta test! I would prefer not to contact translators multiple times with more and more strings to translate. Please let me know if there are any urgent changes needed which need translation. I'm aware that there are 1000s of suggestions, but the beta test has already taken more than 2 months, so it's about time to get the release out. concentrating on finding and fixing remaining bugs contacting translators about new strings Since bug reports have decreased significantly, I would like to end the beta phase and start with release candidates.
