Free Commander: Free File Manager
Earlier this month I wrote about the DiskShop file manager which was a great alternative to Windows Explorer, but unfortunately, wasn’t free. This time around, I’ve found a great file manager that is free. The freeCommander 2007.05a is a free file manager that can be used from your hard drive, a cd, or even a USB stick. Just copy the installation folder and paste it on a cd or USB stick, and you can use it on any computer.
Here are the main features:
- Dual-panel technology - horizontal and vertical
- Tabbed interface
- Optional tree view for each panel
- Built in file viewer to view files in hex, binary, text or image format
- File viewer inside archives too
- Built in archive handling: ZIP (read, write), CAB (read, write), RAR (read)
- Nested archive handling
- Easy access to system folders, control panel, desktop and start menu
- Copy, move, delete, rename files and folders
- Wipe files
- Create and verify MD5 checksums
- File splitting
- File properties and context menu
- Calculation of folder size
- Folder comparison / synchronization
- Modification of file date and attributes
- Folder / program favorites
- File searching (inside archive too)
- File filters for display
- User defined columns for detailed view
- DOS command line
- Multiple language support
Free is so much better isn’t it?

@Nirmal:
It does have a lot of features for a free application. That “use from anywhere” option is great
@Listikal:
That should have been the title - “Windows Explorer on Steroids” haha

Great find man! I use Total Commander (for Windows) and Krusader (in linux) at work. This will be a great add-on to my usb utilities folder.
