I, Ted, have used 100s of programs.

I use Total Commander every day for many hours.  It is the program I load to do any other function on my computer.

It is free for many commands, but I recommend you pay the $ 50 fee to use all the functions.

When you just learn 5 or 8 functions, you can do most of what you want.

Total Commander changes your relation to information.  What ever you put on your computer, you can find, view, copy, send it quick & easy.

Set active folder in one window, then destination folder in other window.

I mark / select some of many folders/ files & move them to a different directory, to better organize my info.

IndexYourFiles.com is 20 times faster, but TC does more functions.

Above study, you need access to truth or information to discern what is true.
