![]() So I think that TotalFinder got first, but XtraFinder is getting better in each release. There are more features worth checking (selecting files using patterns for example). These are the main reasons that made me switch to XtraFinder. Support templates (also, I use FinderPop for this)ĭisplay a panel to select destination, and save last used path (I use this a lot, but I had to open a default window, navigate, align right of the screen) dual window - vertical (with hotkey) (awesome!) (no more ⌘+i, new window, close new window) show total size of selected items in Status Bar (awesome!) click any item in the path bar to show contents menu (though I use FinderPop) I need to use and test XtraFinder more time to check its stability, but TotalFinder is pretty stable so far.Įxtra features I love from XtraFinder Exclusive features I find XtraFinder faster when drag'n'dropping files to move or copy, specially in remote drives using afp protocol. These are the reasons: TotalFinder v.1.6.2 XtraFinder v0.23 Today I've installed XtraFinder and I'm considering never look back. I had already paid my TotalFinder license so I didn't considere try or switch. Not so long ago XtraFinder appeared as a free alternative. I've been using TotalFinder since the first versions, just for the tabs and folders first features.

It's a shame that apple sells OSX as the most modern OS and it has a so limited file explorer.

Xplorer2 might display 426.1kB as a file size. You can choose to display them as bytes, or it'll use kB, Mb or GB as appropriate. ![]() Xplorer2 does display file sizes differently to Windows Explorer. Just the little things, like being able to double click on an empty space in one of the panes to navigate up one folder level. I'm so used to navigating with xplorer2, I find going back to Windows Explorer quite frustrating. Different columns, details view for one tab, thumbnail view for another. ![]() Once you set it up you can save the configuration so it opens the same way each time.Įven the free version is fairly configurable. ![]() ![]() But you can run it like the traditional Windows Explorer view if you want to. Then give each instance of Windows Explorer tabs like a browser. Imagine two instances of Windows Explorer running side by side (for easy copying and pasting etc). If I read a thread where someone's commented on a Windows Explorer annoyance, I try to recommend using xplorer2 instead. Note that the FAT and FAT32 files systems impose theįollowing restrictions on the number of clusters on a volume: Default settingsĪre strongly recommended for the culturally-deprived :-P A:size Overrides the default allocation unit size. ![]()
